Hi,
You may be suffering from Eustachian tube block with middle ear effusion due to allergy or bacterial infection. Avoid cool drinks and freeze water intake. Avoid allergic food intake. Use tablet Montelukast and Levocetrizine once a day for five days.
Use water vapor inhalation and salt water gargling thrice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult your ENT specialist he will examine and do tympanometry with pure tone audiometry then treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu,
