Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to Eustachian tube dysfunction. Blocked eustachian tubes can cause pain, hearing difficulties, and a feeling of fullness in the ears. You may be able to open the blocked tubes with a simple exercise. Close your mouth, hold your nose, and gently blow as if you are blowing your nose. Yawning and chewing gum also may help.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
