I have had a cold for sometime. My dr put me on some meds wich have a little. The issue i am having for past 5 days is that my ear is blocked and i seem to be echeoing and sounds are in a high pitched noise in right ear. I have been taking Iliadin nasal spray, Rinex Diffucaps and Avamys nasal spray.?
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have blocked ears which could be due to tendency to get wax impacted very soon, due to Eustachian tube dysfunction, due to enlarged adenoids or sinusitis could be one of the cause. I would suggest you to visit ENT specialist once and go for thorough examination of nasopharynx to rule out above mentioned causes. and start treatment as per proper diagnosis. If nasopharynx is find out to be clear and without any symptoms then blockage of eustachian tube will be the cause and it can be confirmed by audiometry. Till then avoid excessive blowing. Do warm saline gargles. Put nasal saline and ear drops. Take tablet tablet levocetrizine with phenylephrine once at night and use nasal sprays as well.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
