Have Severe Pain In The Ears. Had Eustachian Tubes Put Into The Ears Earlier. Will Deviated Septum Affect Eustachian Tubes?

I am a 52 year old female and my doctor said I have collapsed /dysfunctional eustachian tubes.I had tubes put into botj ears about 3 weeks ago and I still do not have any relief from the pressure. I also have severe pain in one of the ears. My doctor said it will take time to "adjust" to the tubes. Is this a normal reaction to having tubes put in? I also just found out I have a deviated septum, does that have any effect of my eustachian tubes?

Hi, You are 52 years, female, put both of your eustachian tubes in the ears, for collapsed e.t.
Of course any microsurgery will take time for adjustment , that is reopening of the tubes. if they fail, they may create a hole in the eardrum.
For a quick recovery, take more of green leafy vegetables, and proteine rich foods. Thanks you.
