Hi, I'm not the person you were responding to, but let me tall you my experience - I had several myringotomies. After the first one, one tube fell our without my knowledge and the hole closed. As you described the result is painful.
Another time, thick fluid clogged the tube. It was a long time ago, so I don't remember if he put one in with a bigger hole, or use a syringe to clear the ear.
