Place the asparagus on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, then toss to coat the asparagus completely. Spread the asparagus in a single layer and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Roast the asparagus for 25 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
Myringotomy tubes (often called ear tubes) are small tubes that are surgically placed into your child's eardrum by an ear, nose, and throat surgeon. The tubes may be made of plastic, metal, or Teflon.The tubes are placed to help drain the fluid out of the middle ear in order to reduce the risk of ear infections.During an ear infection, fluid gathers in the middle ear, which can affect your child's hearing.ar tubes come in a variety of sizes, shapes and materials that allow surgeons to best fit the tube to your child, but they're all designed to create an artificial hole in the eardrum to ventilate the middle ear. About one million children each year have tubes placed in their ears.
Ear tubes are plastic and shaped like a hollow spool. Doctors suggest tubes for children who have repeat ear infections or when fluid stays behind the eardrum. A specialist (otolaryngologist) places the tubes through a small surgical opening made in the eardrum (myringotomy or tympanostomy). The child is unconscious under general anesthesia for this surgery. Tubes can help with ear infections because they: 1  Allow air to enter the middle ear. 2  Allow fluid to flow out of the middle ear through the tube into the ear canal. 3  Clear the fluid from the middle ear and restore hearing.
