Suggest Treatment For A Blocked Grommet And Decreased Hearing
I had a grommet inserted Dec 2011 but it has been blocked for last 10 days and drives me nuts as I cannot hear properly
When I close my nose and blow I can feel moisture coming up through my ear canal
Should I make an appt to see my specialist or should I wait for it to unblock by itself
I am flying from NZ to Europe in 18 days time and do not want the discomfort

You should definitely make an appointment before your travel. Pressure on the airplane will not be good for the situation.
