Got fluid behind ear drum; not infected; Been about 6 months; The ringing has improved a lot but still there. Think it drained. Can't afford to go back now and know Ent will cost even more, but can Ent see in the Eustachian tubes? What do they do?

Are tubes for draining ears a good idea for a 2 yr old? His hearing is just below the levels. We are hesitant in getting tubes. Other options?
