Eustachian tube Dysfunction from smoking?


9 years ago 0 1 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I am on Day 3 of my quit. Unfortunately I have plugged, ringing ears for about a year and new puffiness above and under eyes. I was wondering if anyone has had these symptoms due to smoking? My ENT wants to operate and put ear tubes in but everything I've read, states tubes won't help. I'm wondering if I'm just patient with my quit that this things may start to heal themselves.
