I'm hearing a clicking noise in my ear every time I swallow, but there's no pain. Is it normal to have this? I've tried various methods for ear clogging, but nothing seems to help. Should I be concerned, or is it something that happens to everyone?

I've been having this issue where my left ear feels blocked every morning, and I can only hear faintly until it gradually clears up throughout the day. It's been happening for about 20-25 days now. Do you have any suggestions for wax removal drops that could help?

You can try using Debrox earwax removal drops. Use 5-10 drops in the affected ear, and keep your head tilted for 5 minutes to allow the drops to work. You can do this twice a day for up to 4 days to help soften and remove the earwax. If the symptoms persist, please consult an ENT specialist for further evaluation.

I'm experiencing this ringing noise in my left ear. It was clogged before, but after taking medication, the blockage cleared up. Still, the ringing persists. Also, whenever I open my mouth, there's this clicking sound from the left side of my jaw. Could this be something related to my ear or jaw? And should I see an ENT specialist or a different kind of doctor for this issue?

Consume warm foods and practice valsalva for better results.
