Question about closed ear. Following is the approach for the case.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to the 'Ask A Doctor service'.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advise.

You are feeling closed ear means feeling blackage.
The impacted wax, sinusitis, allergic upper respiratory tract infection, ear infection etc are some of the common cause for that.

You should consult otorhinolaryngologist for your ear Otoscopy examination and PNS x ray for primary work up.
According to cause specific treatment given.
For ex. If impacted wax present than it should be removed by syringing or suction.

Meanwhile you can take decongestant tablet like levocetirizine or phenylephrine for that.

If you have fever, cough with expectoration, dyspnea, ear discharge like complaint than mention it to guide you further.

Hope I have answered your question.

I w'll be happy to help you further if needed.

Best regards
