Is there a way to drain fluid from middle ear at home? no insurance hoping for home remedy. recurring issue may be eustachian tube related.

No home remedy: There is no home remedy for this. But ask your doctor about decongestant medications or anti-inflammatory drugs that might promote drainage through the eustachian tube without requiring an expensive procedure. Good luck.
