Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of dizziness and blocked ears with discomfort in throat which seems to be due to left over upper respiratory tract infection leading to eustachian tube dysfunction. It could be due to creation of negative pressure inside ears. Need not to worry. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined and start treatment after thorough examination. You should get otoscopic examination done. Take proper course of antibiotics such as Levofloxacin along with antiinflammatory medication such as Levocetrizine. You should maintain complete oral hygiene. Do warm saline gargles. Put otogesic ear drops.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
