How long till after tube placement in both ears do i regain full hearing? everything sounds so far away or the a wall. also pain when will that leave

Something wrong: Ventilation tubes inserted into the tympanic membranes should not hurt and if most of the middle ear fluid has been removed, your hearing should immediately improve. I am assuming that you had a middle ear effusion. You should not have pain and if your hearing is not improved, then either you did not have fluid or all of the fluid was not removed. Not uncommon for adults to have residual fluid.

I have clicking/popping sound in ear when I burp Im almost 99% sure it isnt ear wax. I also have sudden onset tinnitus in right ear no noticeable hearing loss. Could it be Eustachian Tube dysfunction and glue ear?
Can you have Eustachian tube dysfunction without ear fullness or dulled hearing? Sometimes its so hard to pop my ear, but sometimes its not. Im not sure if my ears are supposed to be clicking or not. Im just so confused?
