Will I need ear tubing again? Help!?

I am 18 years old, First infection treated with antibiotics two days after i finshed using them up I got another ear infection. I do not have adenoids and I have had tubing before.

You will need to ask this question to an ENT doctor. If your ear infections can be treated without the need for grommets and it settles down so that you don't have so many, perhaps you won't need them.

If you have multiple ear infections and they result in repeated ruptures of your ear drums, you may well need tympanostomy tubes (grommets). This will prevent scarring of your ear drums and subsequent deafness.
