What Causes A Clogged Ear And Poor Hearing?

Hi, I m a 19 year old male and I recently have been feeling an ear blocking sensation for the past 2 weeks and slight loss of hearing at times in my right ear. Although it s mostly in my right ear, sometimes the sensation alternates to my left. It feels as though the sound isn t coming through, not clogged. It s an odd sensation to describe. I ve had a doctor check me out and they didn t see any damage or signs of infection, but they aren t specialists, so I m not quiet sure what could be causing this or how to treat it if possible. Also, I ve been experiences slight dizziness/heaviness and pain in the back of my head if that has any relevance to my other symptoms as well. Thank you.
