A member asked:

Are blood clots common after a bilateral myringotomy with tubes?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Some times: Myringotomy is done to drain middle ear fluid, to prevent middle ear infection, which may cause deafness in the children, by inserting small tube in the membranous part of drum most of the time no bleeding or clotts, some times may bleed from surface vessel, and will stop. See your doctor for bleeding.

A member asked:

I have ear tubes (myringotomy) and they still feel like they need to pop. Every time I swallow I hear clicking. Can my Eustachian tube be the issue and not the grommet? I can blow air through the grommet so it isnt clogged?
