Brief Answer:
You maybe suffering from the glue ear

Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have gone through your query and understand your concern; most probably you maybe suffering from the glue ear.

I would like you suggest that you may add mucolytic tablet, steam inhalation, chew gum containing xylitol and valsalva maneuver in your above mentioned prescription after consulting with your doctor.

I would also suggest that get some investigation done to reach the near diagnosis and to rule out other disease such as otoendoscopy, pure tone audiometry and impedance audiometry.

Regards
