Ear tubes can be inserted into the incision during myringotomy and left there. The eardrum heals around them, securing them in place. They usually fall out on their own in six to 12 months or are removed by a doctor.
The tubes that lead from the middle ear to the nasal cavity and throat are called the Eustachian tubes. These tubes help regulate air pressure in the middle ear, drain fluids, and protect the ear from infections.
The eustachian tubes are the auditory tubes that link the nasopharynx to the middle ear.
Ear tubes are typically placed to aid in draining excess fluid from the middle ear. If liquid is coming out of the ear with tubes, it could be a sign of successful drainage of accumulated fluid or discharge from an infection. It is important to consult a healthcare professional to determine the cause and appropriate treatment.
The placement of ventilation tubes (tympanostomy tubes) through the eardrum helps to provide ongoing drainage for fluid that may build up in the middle ear. These tubes equalize pressure and allow for ventilation, reducing the risk of ear infections and improving hearing.

The Eustacian tubes allow the pressure on inside the ear and out to remain equal.
It is not recommended to use peroxide in the ears with tubes installed as it can potentially damage the tubes or cause irritation to the ear canal. It is best to consult with a healthcare provider for proper guidance on ear care when tubes are present.
The ear has a tube that equalizes the pressure in the eardrum. These tubes are known as the eustacean tubes.
The tube right below the Cochlea in the inner ear.
