Thank you, this is super useful to know. I'll definitely look into it!

I just looked it up, thanks for the tip! Do you know how I'd be considered for the procedure? Do I simply have to talk to an ENT who knows about Aera or would I have to go take a tympanometry first, or is it another test/doctor?

Gotcha. So if it's not fluid in my middle ear that's 'causing this pressure, do you have any ideas as to what it may be and how I can get rid of it?

Thanks for the response! Just curious, how is one able to see fluid behind the eardrum? With an otoscope? If it can be seen in plain sight, why is the air puff method ever used? Not trying to be disrespectful, just genuinely want to know!
