1 Flonase and antibiodics for a blocked ear Hi Leila, Could you please tell me what kind of doctor did the tuning Fork treatment? Are you allowed to share his name? Was he a specialist?. Could these cause my tinnitus to worsen? I've had mild ringing in my ears. Was was i given beclomethasone nasal spray for a blocked ear. I'm in same boat I've always got blocked up ears,like there full up,but my hearing is fine,i've got tinnitus as well.ive tried yawning,and wriggling my jaw,ear tapping,nothings worked.even I've got allergies Rhinitis,think that's why there blocked,was siggested to put menthol behind the ears.give that a go. Can afrin (oxymetazoline) nose spray help unplug my ears?. Hi Marlene. Is it both ears with you then? With me it is the right ear and left ear is a little bit iffy now and then. Hve tried lots of antibiotics and all useless and they damage your gut flora so dont want to take them. The yawning thing helps if it is a slight block but not with this. ma\ybe the menthol behnd the ears will help. Some people get grommits put in their ears to relieve it and empty it. But maybe it just gets full up again then. My right ear is hurting otherwise i would not mind so much, but when it hurts it gets me down. How are you today? for a long time due to noise damage. All these symptoms occurred after a concert. Shouldn't I be able to enjoy some live music? My ENT is not making the connection, instead treating everything separately, isn't it more likely they come from one cause. It seems to actually be less noticeable when my ears feel the most clogged - isn't that the opposite of what should happen? Yes. I think in my case leaky gut or acid reflux and this would explain why taking the cimitidine stops it coming up and causing it or making it worse. Before I took them it got very bad. Since then it has only got bad when I forgot to take them or tried to manage without them. don't like to have to take them because of the long term side effects, so alson take multi vits and minerals and biotics etc to try to leswsen them. Hope you arefeeling better today Marlene. I've been experiencing a

2 clogged left ear for a couple of months now. It feels like I'm under water or I have my finger pushed deep into my left ear. It isn't a constant clog, but seems to occur for a few hours every afternoon. It isn't painful, but it is annoying. Sometimes there is a fullness, or pressure associated with the clogged feeling. I find myself breathing through my mouth when it is clogged as it bothers me to hear myself breath (very loudly) in one ear. As soon as I wake with that congestion, if it isnt gone by the next day, I will take the flonase. Well it's been nine days of that course of treatment and my ears still really hurt and still feel terribly clogged! And this morning I awake to severe pain in my throat and found quite a few little white spots on my tonsil that have been increasing by the hour. The right ear hurts more and there are more spots on that tonsil. I haven't ran any fevers yetm but I have also been taking a lot of advil for the pain. What is this??? Well, for me it started with sinus problems.i would get sinus headaches and pain in my ears. When my sinuses become inflamed, it screws up my eustachian tube- causing the "dysfunction". My ears will start to feel plugged, I might feel fluid in there. I will get dizzy, and feel like my head is not attached. I had allergy tests done- all negative, so I know it is not that. So, I have non-allergic rhinitis. when I get stressed out or dont exericise, I notice a flare up. I have been having a lot of pressure in the back of my head from ears down for several months now. I have also bee dealing with a daily headache which occurs on the right side of my forehead every time. I have had alot of pressure in my ears and within the past week now have a clogged ear that nothing seems to get rid of. I can feel the fluid come out for a split second and then fills right back up. My headaches and ears are very painful. It really depends on the cause of the ear problem. Saline nasal spray is a very effective moisturizer that, if used frequently, will help in alleviating any sinus obstruction. During the winter and known allergy season, i recommend one use the saline nasal spray every 30 minutes during waking hours. See your doctor, however, if the sinus pressure remains or worsens as this could indicate an

3 infection. At around Oct. 20, I was just hanging out at home a few days after recovering from a mild cold. However, my ears were still a little bit clogged after the cold, so I plugged my nose, shut my mouth and pushed air out until I felt something in my ears. Was interested in the acid reflux solution does it help the fullness I know I do suffer with this and it made me cough for months. Is fluticasone propionate nasal spray a decongestant for your sinuses?. Be careful! use of afrin ( oxymetazoline ) for longer than 3 days can result in rebound congestion that's hard to get rid of. Oral decongestants like Pseudoephedrine are safer and can also unblock your ears if they are blocked because your eustachian tubes are blocked. ears feeling, but I don't think I have five things wrong with my ears all at the same time - all starting right after the concert, I don't believe in that many coincidences. I have tried my best to chronicle each symptom to give you the best information to formulate an opinion.. Stuffy ears can be the result of allergic inflammation and using a nasal steroid spray may be helpful. If it does not, need to see your otolaryngologist,.

TEENren can be given acetaminophen (paracetamol) and ibuprofen. In Germany and other countries, these medications are available without a prescription. Both relieve pain and lower fever. They can be given as suppositories or syrup. Ibuprofen has an antiinflammatory effect too. The dosage of these medications depends on the TEEN's age and body weight. When using paracetamol or ibuprofen, the minimum time interval between doses must be observed as well. You will find more information about how to use these medications and about their possible side effects in the package insert that comes with them. If you are unsure about anything, you can talk to your doctor or pharmacist. Acetylsalicylic acid

A build-up of pressure in the inner ear, including pressure caused by sinus problems, can sometimes make you feel dizzy. First line of defense against sinusitis: Nasal irrigation. Acute sinusitis. Acute sinusitis usually starts with a cold. Viruses, not bacteria, cause colds, so it's useless to treat them with antibiotics. But when a cold turns into sinusitis, it means that blocked nasal passages have set off a secondary infection caused by bacteria and you may eventually need an antibiotic. Rarely, especially in people with weakened immune systems, a fungal infection is the cause. Rest, rest and rest listen to your body so it can fight the virus.

5 clogged or blocked feeling in the ears is generally caused by a blockage of the eustachian tubes. The eustachian tubes connect the upper throat and back of the nose with the middle ear. They function to equalize the pressure in the middle ear with the air pressure outside of the ear. When these tubes do not open and close properly to maintain even pressure, discomfort, ear popping, hearing impairment, or a feeling of clogged ears can occur. The Mayo Clinic states that most cases of blocked eustachian tubes are caused by an ear infection, nasal congestion, earwax accumulation, eustachian tube inflammation or allergies. Treatment to unclog the ears depends on the underlying cause of the problem. The ear can be divided into three sections: outer, middle and inner. Myringotomy - We make a tiny incision in the eardrum and suction out any fluid in the middle ear. In adults, the incision often stays open long enough to allow the swelling in the Eustachian tube lining to resolve. After the eardrum heals (usually within one to three days), fluid in the middle ear fluid may begin to re-accumulate if the Eustachian tube lining has not recovered.
