Are the Eustachian tubes the key to curing some types of Asthma?

I cant explain how I remember this, but when I was in primary school, a teacher mentioned that her father was in surgery and accidentally had some tubes in his nose area cut. She said that this “cured” his asthma (I believe it she said asthma and not just a breathing difficulty) and he never suffered from it again. Could those tubes she mentioned be the Eustachian tubes as I saw in another question?
