What Causes Muffled Hearing Along With Vertigo Post A Surgery?

I had surgery on August 26. The day following surgery my ears seems plugged and I ve been suffering from what I though was vertigo since then. I went to my ENT today and he said there was nothing he could do to help me. I must have some damage from the anesthesia and my blood pressure during surgery. Any ideas

Hello,

Which surgery you have undergone?? Some sinusitis or infection possible after general anaesthesia.

So you may use water vapour inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days.

Use tablet montelukast and levocetirizine.

If symptoms not improved please consult your ENT/Physician specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
