Suggest Treatment For Blocked And Painful Ears While Suffering From Cold
Hi, I have a cold but my left ear feels very blocked and I get popping/cackling noise when I swallow or move my head. I also recently took a flight which made my ears very painful during landing. The bunged feeling in my ear seemed to get worse after the flight. Should I be worried or will it clear up once my cold has passed? Many thanks

Hi.
This looks to be a case of Otitis Media due to Rhinitis.
You should be worried as this will not clear-up completely without a proper diagnosis and treatment.
Undergo an ENT Check-up , endoscopy,
Take the proper medicines including the antibiotics , decongestant and anti-inflammatory medicines.
