I've been feeling a heaviness in my head over the last few days, and I think it might be due to wax buildup in my left ear. Could an ear infection be causing this heaviness? I'm really curious to understand what's going on.

I'm really worried about something crawling in my left ear and both ears popping like they do on flights. I've also been dealing with some clear mucus in my throat. I was given Montair LC and then Levoday, but didn't feel much better. The nasal endoscopy didn't show anything wrong, and my doctor thinks it's due to allergies. I've been using Avamys nasal spray and saline spray since my fungal sinusitis surgery back in 2015. I also try steam inhalation and the Toynbee maneuver, but after 2.5 months, nothing seems to help. I've even got jaw pain now. Is there any way to permanently fix this?
You are experiencing symptoms of allergic rhinitis, which can lead to eustachian tube dysfunction and discomfort in the ears. The medications prescribed by your ENT specialist are aimed at managing your symptoms. For the sensation of something crawling in your left ear and the ear popping, you can try using Fluticasone nasal spray (brand name Flonase) 2 sprays in each nostril once daily. This can help reduce inflammation in the nasal passages and improve eustachian tube function. For the jaw pain, you can take Acetaminophen (brand name Tylenol) 500mg every 6 hours as needed for pain relief. It is important to continue using Avamys nasal spray and saline spray as advised, as well as practicing the steam inhalation and Toynbee maneuver. These measures can help alleviate your symptoms. If your symptoms persist despite these interventions, you may need to follow up with your ENT specialist for further evaluation and management.
