I had ear tubes as a little kid due to ear infection and the resulting burst ear drums. I hadn't had any ear issues until I joined a fraternity and moved into an 80 year old house with mold and mildew issues.

While seeing an ear nose and throat doctor, the prospect of getting ear tubes again was brought up. I asked him how it would affect my chances of getting a medical. He told me that he's given several pilots ear tubes and they haven't reported any difficulties with getting medicals. I'm not sure what class of medical they were trying to get, so I recommend still asking an AME.

Fortunately I found a remedy of FAA approved allergy medicines that help treat the symptoms that led to my ear infections, so I avoided the ear tubes.

I don't know the reasons for your ear issues, but if you can find some other FAA approved way of treating the issue, I'd suggest considering that course of action as well.

Good luck with getting the issue fixed, there's not much more annoying or painful than having an ear infection and all you want to do is go fly.
