Suggest Remedy For Catarrh In Ears?

I have recently been experiencing a similar sensation to that which often accompanied childhood swimming n the local baths when water entered the ears. Thinking that a build up of wax might be the cause I have had the ears syringed. However the problem persists and I now think that catarrh might well be the causative factor. Is there a simple remedy to clear catarrh in the ears?

HI.
It is very important to know the origin.
You need to be seen by an ENT , who on clinical examination will decide the cause .
If this is coming from the nose, you need decongestant nasal drops and oral tablets along with an antibiotic and an anti-inflammatory medicines for a long time till your problem is over.
Ear drops do not help- avoid.
I find this answer helpful
