What Causes Head Pressure With Clogged Ears?
Hello in the past three weeks I have been experiencing constant pressure on the right side of my head. Also, when I lay on my stomach the pain is more intense and my ears feel clogged. What might this be... Or what tests would be recommended to determine the cause? I ve seen 4 doctors who cannot figure it out.

Hello!
Thank you for asking on Healthcaremagic!
Your symptoms could be related to an inner ear infection or sinus infection.
For this reason, I recommend consulting with an ENT specialist for a careful physical check up. Some tests to consider would be:
- a sinus X ray study
- complete blood count, PCR, sedimentation rate for inflammation. ¨
A bran CT scan or MRI may be necessary.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Wishing all the best, Dr. Aida
