Suggest Home Remedies For Plugged Ears
I have had water in my ear canal for about 3 weeks. I have tried putting a few drops of alcohol in there and it felt better for about a day. Now it feels inflamed in the canal and I have a lot of pressure and some discomfort when biting down to chew. Is there a home remedy I can try?

Hi,
It's already 3 weeks for getting water in ear. By now, the inflammation & probably infection must have set in.In such a case it's advisable to consult an ENT specialist & get scientific advise. You need antibiotic & anti-inflammatory durgs, this will help in avoiding further complications.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
