General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It may be due to your middle ear infection or inflammation, you need to visit your ENT specialist and get further treatment. Meanwhile steam inhalation and frequent clearing of throat may help. You can also try a dose of antibiotics if you haven't. TAB taxi-o would do.

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