Are Blocked Ears An Allergic Symptom?

What would help my ears? They are fine one minute then the next they pop. Then it is dull and they feel blocked or clogged. So then move my jaw to release and have to do this constantly. Could it be allergies. Would hearing aids help. They only stay open for just a bit. It is driving me crazy.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It may be a allergic symptom as all ear,nose and sinuses are functionally and clinically related to each other.So allergic symptoms of any part can cause symptoms related to other. If you have no symptoms of rhinitis or sinusitis,then this may be a pressure disturbance. Try some simple exercises 1.Do alternate nostril deep breathing. 2. Another exercise:: Inhale deeply with both nostrils until your abdomen becomes full with air.Then close your nose using fingers and you will fill air pressure in your ear drum.Do it 12 times daily for a week. If not helps consult your otorhinolaryngologists.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Note: For further information on diet changes to reduce allergy symptoms or to boost your immunity, Ask here.
