Suggest Treatment For Pressure And Whooshing Sound In Ear
Hello. My ears have been cracking for a couple of months now since I developed an upper respiratory infection. My ENT could not see any problems and said it should clear, but so far nothing. I also have tinnitus, but it was a Pre-existing condition. The past couple of days, my right ear has had a good deal of more pressure in it, and I am getting a low pitches whooshing sound. Is there anything I can do to help this?

hello and welcome to health care magic,
You need to get an audiometry evaluation done as soon as possible along with a CT of the temporal bones and get back to me or any ENT with the reports.
I have fair amount of success with medication like antihistamine and tinnicar but this can be started only after the reports
