I Have Ringing Feelings In My Left Ear With Flu
ringing in my left ear since i had the flu over a week ago when will it go away I had the flu about 2 weeks ago. Since then, my head has been congested, causing my left ear to get stopped up. Now, a couple of days ago I noticed a constant ringing in my ears,mostly on the left side. It is more noticeable when I am trying to go to sleep,or when everything is quiet. How long will this last? It is super annoying!

Hi,
You are having the block of Eustachian tube following flu. Do take steam inhalation 2-3 times/day, drink plenty of warm water and also use saline nasal drops 3 drops 3-4 times/day.
Regards
Dr. Naveen Kumar
