Thanks for consulting. I have carefully worked through your case, and I can realize your health worries. Being your physician, I assure you not to worry as I will take care all of your medical concerns.

you current problem is ear is due to the rhinitis.
only when you treat the rhinitis the ear block will go. this is because the mucus and inflammation would have narrowed the euthanasia tube that connect ear to throat for maintenance of air pressure. when this happens the ear gets a felling of blocked due to the pressure difference.

for nasal congestion take
tablet allegra 120 mg twice a day
and use nasovion nasal spray or other available nasal decongestant.
can try steam inhalation with eucalyptus or medical oil.

Hope it helps. If you need further, detailed and quick assistance related to any health issues in future, feel free to 'ask me a question' directly from my profile.

Have a wonderful time ahead.


Best Regards!
