Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain echoing sounds in ea along with wooshing sounds can be due to causes like Eustachian tube blockage, fluid in the middle ear, ear infection,excess wax accumulation etc..
I would suggest you to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical examination and investigations like otoscopy, x ray, MRI Scan can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..
You can be advised to take oral and nasal decongestants in case of blockage in the eustachian tubes or fluid inside the ear..
If it does not resolve surgical drainage and pressure equalization tubes can be placed..
Excess ear wax can be removed manually..
Infection will be treated with antibiotics..
Along with it avoiding water exposure and exposure to loud sounds should be done as a protective measure..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
