Tympanostony tube never fell
When I was 7 years old my ears started bleeding and clotting. ENT put in Tympanostomy tube .When I was 22-23 Rhe right one finally fell out. Unfortunately I am now 28 and the left still hasn't fallen. It's been consistently annoying and does ache from time to time. What can be done at this stage? I was told by my GP that oly the ENT who originally put them I can take them out. Is this true?

No it is not true at all..Any ENT specialist can do that.. visit an ENT specialist for assessment and plan for extraction of the tympanostomy tube if any..
