Can you get tubes in your ears with an ear infection?

Answer:
Yes. Believe it or not, frequent/recurrent ear infections (sometimes caused by water, such as going into a pool or taking a shower and getting water in your ears) can be the main cause of getting tubes in your ears. Getting tubes in your ears is a surgical procedure with no side effects (with the exception of vomiting due to the anesthesia). Talking from personal experience, there are no negative consequences to getting tubes with the exception of having to be more careful in and around water.
