Diving with Ear Tubes: Risks and Precautions


Question
I have a middle ear problem which requires a tube to be placed in my eardrum.  If I take a beginner diving course (only 25 feet) prior to this placement, can it cause permanent damage or make my present problem worse?

Answer
You absolutely MUST consult your physician about this.  There is nothing underwater worth seeing so much to jeopardize your hearing.  Please take this advice from someone that has experienced barotrauma.  I suffer hearing loss from a diving accident.  You don't want to have this happen.  Be safe.  Dive safe.  Have fun.
