What Causes Popping Of Ears Every Time I Stand Up?

Back in April I developed an ear infection, which was odd in itself as I had never had a problem with ear infections before. It got weirder when, after being put on four different antibiotics over time, the ear infection has yet to completely go away. Its bothering me worse now because any time I stand up after sitting both of my ears pop and feel like they have cotton balls in them. Is this just an irritating ear infection or could this be a more problematic issue?

get your eustachian tube and ear drum movement evaluation done by tests- pure tone audiometry, impedance audiometry and eustachian tube function.
