Can Ear And Sinus Infection Causes Low Sexual Interest?
I recently had a bronchitis and a ear infection. I THINK (I am not sure) that I have a sinus infection, as well... After flying (with the OK of my doctor), I suffered from some ear blockage. Since then, I have not enjoyed sex at all (and my sex drive is low). Could it be related to my illness?

hi
whenever we are flying in the aircraft there is always a pressure difference in the outside atmosphere and the middle ear area.
this causes our pressure regulating tube i.e eustachian tube to malfunction and hence there is negative pressure in our ear which causes the feeling of ear
while about the sex drive ,whenever we are suffering from any illness we are not physically fit in performing in bed.
i think once you are fit and not harbouring any of the disease everything will be fine.
just take physicians opinion and start some medications.
