Suffering with this at the moment in my right ear, its driving me potty
done all the things suggested here and last night I woke up and felt it pop and my hearing was clear as a bell. I went back to sleep feeling very happy only to wake up again this morning with it back!
I have been putting drops in to try to soften any wax just in case when I do manage to get an appointment with Doc, they say it needs to be syringed, but it seems to make it worse and I have more muffled hearing and it makes me more anxious that I am going deaf
I have been told I have very narrow Eustachian tubes so it could be this that is causing the problem, I also seem to have postnasal drip down the back of my throat so wonder if this is contributing to it.
I have had this before but it always seemed to resolve itself in a few days, this time its been over a week and am wondering if its something to do with weather (very humid here) and the start of the allergy season with tree pollen. Just clutching at straws really, but blocked ears are very disconcerting and I hate the feeling
