What Causes Ear Pain While Suffering From High BP?

I have an earache a lot of time. I have problems with my BP going as high as 220/109 l. Is it possible the high BP be cause of my earache? I had major surgery one week after that high BP to have problems next day for it to drop 85/46 and oxygen stats drop to 86. When the BP was low I didn t have the earache. This is my reason for asking. I am not on any BP meds either.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of ear pain while suffering from high BP which is caused by many factors like stress, ear infection, ear fluid accumulation, temporomandibular joint problem, cervical spondylosis and increase blood pressure. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination. Doctor may order certain test like audiometry, low and high pitched ringing to rule out conditions like hearing loss , exposure to loud noises , earwax buildup , middle ear infection. Take steam inhalation. Avoid excessive hard substance eating. Keep your ear drops along with you. You should take antibiotics along with anti inflammatory medicines like ibuprofen and diclofenac.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
