Everything sounds muffled. I ave the loudest ringing EVER in my left ear. I'm way dizzy and bumping into things. My brain seems to be on 5-minute
delay.
And of course, this happens on my vacation weekend.

What do you do to help it?
So far, I've used swimmer's ear drops, alcohol, and now i just bought earache drops. Nothing is helping!! |

I have an icepack on my face!
 I'm sure I look awesome.. I was
hoping you had a remedy for it!
I'm on Ammoxil for the tonsillectomy surgery I just had.. I'm hoping that'll prevent any serious infection.. but the pressure on my ears is killing me! |

I just wish my damn ear would pop. The muffliness comes and goes, so I know it's not too far away.
I think I'm gonna put some of the earache drops in again and stuff a cotton ball in there. Maybe it'll help more if I leave the drops in longer? |

I woke up this morning with a totally clogged ear too, and it does suck. My only comfort is that it doesn't hurt. As a kid, I had chronic ear infections and they were
excruciatingly painful.

infections all the time as a kid. I can't tell you how much of my life I've spent lying on my side letting ear drops sink in.

Try taking some nasal decongestants. They prevent my ears from popping on airplanes so I tried them once when I had the same problem as you and it worked, with
a little extra yawning here and there.
