What To Do If Having Blocked Ears, Sore Throat, Runny Nose, Headache When Coughing?
Hi, I have this really bad flu. My ears are blocked for about 5 days now because of excess mucous. Also when I cough my head bangs like something is overloading in there. I have a sore throat and runny nose. The thing that is killing me the most is my ears, they're blocked for about 5 days now and I have this numbing sound 24/7 and it feels like someone's just blocking my ears. Its like when you take off or land from a flight.
