Hello,
It seems from the history that you are having crackling sound in the ear when you blow your mouth. This is because of obstruction of a tube which connects middle ear with throat called as eustachian tube. The causes can be inflammation of ear called as serous otitis media.
Hence this requires evaluation by a ENT doctor for evaluation and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
