Right!

10 days ago I started with a feeling of fullness in the ear, my ears also occasionally rang and felt quite clogged and the best way to describe is that I felt underwater. So i went to the doctor and booked me in for a syringe, had that done and it cleared some of the wax, but my ear still felt full and I felt underwater. So i went back to the doctor and he said my eardrum was slightly imnflamed and gave me some ear drops. I am now into day 4 of the ear drops and it has got slightly better, don't know if this is down to the fact I am getting use to it!!

So in the last couple of days the same symptons have persisted but now my ears begin to pop for a split second and then go back to the fullness and underwater!

What do I do? Go to the doctor tomorrow, or is there any simple home treatment?

Thanks, please help!!

Have you tried taking an allergy med, such as Zyrtec (prescription)? If not, it may help.

The ear drops will help equalize the pressure in the ear. Sometimes the air bubbles get out of suspension and takes time for them to go back normal.

Have you tried chewing gum to help ears to open up. When flying in airplane, this works well.

More than likely your ear problem is due to allergy.

So having these symptons for 10 or odd days is no problem and I shouldn't be overly concerned?

Ears feeling a lot more open this morning and I can actually hear quite well, hopefully it is nearing its end! :bouncing:

now it all makes sense..

i cleaned my room after being away for awhile.
i got bad allergies
my eyes runny/gooey/crusty
my nose.. =(
i had a cough and even a FEVER for a day
all kind of garbage in my ears and after cleaning the right one
i couldnt hear right out of it

i read in a chuck palahniuk book about setting newspaper in the ear on fire and i tried it and burnt some hair and couldnt put the fire out and had to water hose the room and clean it all over again

this time i am going to try zyrtec and chewing gum

if that doesnt work, syringe?

wait it out?

I AM A MUSICIAN AND I NEED MY EARS EVERY DAY!!!

help..

How long have you had it. My ear is feeling virtually back to normal today, 12 days after it started!

Perxide works, if there is wax...

Do you know where I could get this Zyrtec from since it's not available in chemists? I've been suffering with the same problem for 2 years now.

I've got the same problem as well, had it for about 3 years and no doctor seems to know what's wrong with me. Have you had any luck with your treatment?
