The operation of ear intubation will take general anesthesia or local anesthesia according to the patient's condition, and it will take a period of hospitalization after operation, and the cost is not cheap. Some insured people can reimburse some expenses and bear thousands of dollars themselves.

After the operation, the catheter needs to be placed in the auricle for about six months. After the eustachian tube function is restored, most of the snorkel will fall off by itself.
