Hi, The sequence of events that occurs are as follows: * Blowing of the nose too hard pushes air and sometimes nasal fluid through an Eustachian tube to the middle ear cavity which has eardrum as outer wall.*The forced air and fluid causes build up of pressure within the close cavity of middle ear causing pain, fullness, pain around ear as you have explained. * The pressure within middle ear can cause referred pains as you have. I would advise you the following in such a situation: * Stop blowing the nose. * Consult an ENT Surgeon for ENT endoscopy to see what exactly is going on, whether there is congestion, fluid build up or perforation of the eardrum. * Start taking oral decongestant and nasal drops like Otrivin * Prescription based antibiotic and any other medications as needed * Do not instill anything in ears. All these will give diagnosis and a specific treatment needed in such cases. Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
