Hi
welcome to HCM AND THANKS for putting up the query
sir according to your complaints, it seems to be eustachian tube blockage..
Please continue taking the oral decongestant..also take a nasal decongestant drops 2 drops 3 times a day for atleast a week
for a faster relief, take steam inhalation, also chew a gum for sometime, it will take 3 to 4 days for the tube to get open..
Don't put any ear drops..
Wishing you a speedy recovery
