Hi. Clogged ears- need to see a ENT Specialist as the reasons can really be various , each needing a different treatment. For example - an impacted wax needs removal, fluid inside the ear-drum needs medical treatment or may be drained for an early recovery. Please do not try anything at home , particularly self probing or cleaning and stop blowing the nose as it may cause more harm.
