Hi.
Has he been seen by an ENT Specialist with proper endoscopy of the ear ? Someone just putting in a torch light may not be in a position to tell the correct diagnosis.
The most probable cause for such a blockage and hearing like a ocean sound can be due to fluid accumulation inside the ear-drum / accumulation of wax touching the ear-drum. Stop Kenacomb drops. No drops can help and many times they can cause more blockage.
Please seek for an ENT examination to confirm diagnosis, as perfect diagnosis can only guide for a perfect treatment.
