I'm having a problem with my right earit feels blocked, and I can hardly hear anything out of it. This has been going on for three days now and it all started suddenly when I woke up one morning. What could be causing this, and should I be worried?

Right ear blockage can be due to various reasons such as earwax buildup, fluid accumulation, or an ear infection. I recommend using over-the-counter ear drops like Debrox to help soften the earwax and clear the blockage. You can also try using a warm compress on the ear to relieve any discomfort. If the symptoms persist, you may need to see an ENT specialist for further evaluation and treatment.

I've noticed that I'm always dealing with one blocked nostril, and it's really odd because it only feels unblock while I'm taking a hot shower. It's not a runny nose or anything that feels like a cold. Could this be something I should be concerned about? Is there a reason why the steam or heat from the shower might be helping?

The persistent blockage of one nostril, except during hot showers, could be due to a deviated septum, nasal polyps, enlarged turbinate bones, or environmental allergies; consider consulting an ear, nose, and throat (ENT)
