Hello,
As such no correlation between hypertension and clogged ears. But elevated blood pressure may cause pulsatile tinnitus in the ears. Now present complaint may be due to infection or allergy.
Use tablet amoxicillin and clavulinic acid 625mg twice a day for five days. Avoid cool drinks and freeze water. Use water vapour inhalation thrice a day for five days.
If symptoms not improved please consult with your ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
