A member asked:
Whats the likelyhood of my eustachian tubes getting worse after i finish my prednisone? they seem to be getting better, but im scared once im off it, theyll get bad again. been almost two weeks since my ear infection that caused this?

Sounds pretty normal. They often take weeks to months to finally resume normal activity. I wouldn't dwell on the issue. It will or won't clear in time. If you develop a new pattern of ear pain, go for a re-check.
