Hello

You may be having , what is known as an eustachian tube block ( this is a normal tube between the ear and nose ) and ear drops will not be of much use in this condition.Please meet your ent doctor for confirming this. You can also start steam inhalation 2-3 times a day , it will help

Thanks
