Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Plugged Ears

Have been getting strange dizzy spells off and on for about a month now. Happens even when laying down. Today when it happened my ears sounded like they were plugged or under water and there was a real loud like alarm going off sound. And I was seeing all kinds of spots. I felt like I was going to blackout .

Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM,

As per your query you have dizziness and plugged ears . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like low blood sugar level or iron level , TMJ problem , impacted tooth , inner ear infection or condition like meniere's disease . But the symptoms are probably due to eustachian tube dysfunction .I would suggest you to drink plenty of warm water , drink green tea thrice a day and take proper rest , Consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Taking steam thrice a day will be helpful. Doctor may order CT scan , examine with otoscope , hearing test and rotatory chair test and blood tests . Doctor may prescribe anti emetic drug , antibiotics ( gentamicine ) , anti inflammatory and may recommend vestibular therapy and hearing aid . Apply dry warm compresses on external ear and cove your ears while bathing.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
