I had a long flight from delhi to melbourne and after getting off from the flight discovered one ear totally blocked and paing like hell. Its been 4 days since then its paining continously and cant hear anything from that ear but when i put my head straight up it becomes ok. Dont know whats happening to me. Please help
The symptoms seem to be related to an ear infection. I suggest using anti inflammatory medications such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain. I also suggest using an ear drop with antibiotic to treat the infection. If the symptoms continue, oral antibiotics may be needed. I also recommend to use war compresses at the ear to drain the infection.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
