Hi, Welcome to the Healthcare magic. I had gone through your question. This could be due to eustachian tube dysfunction. This is a tiny tube which connects the inside ear with back of nose. This ventilates and drains the ear. I recommend the following. 1) An audiometry and tympanometry to confirm. 2) Oral decongestant like levocetrizine with phenylephrine. 3) An exercise: Blowing the air into mouth, keeping the mouth closed and nose closed by pinching between thumb and index. You can hear a pop up sound indicating eustachian tube opening. Then release the nose and open the mouth. Repeat this 5 to 6 times a day for 7 days.
Hope I have answered your question. If you have any questions, I am happy to help you.
Wish you a speedy recovery and good health.
