My right ear started feeling num two days ago Now I feel a sensation inside the ear kind of clogged . What would be the cause of this or what can I do for this sensation to go away? Is it something related to my stroke? Do I have to go to the ER or can I wait to see my physician?

Brief Answer:
Are you on any medications?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about the stroke you suffered. However glad that your doctors did a great job and you are very much recovered. I wish you well.

I will lik to know the medications you are on at this time. There is no alarm for you to rush to the ER at this time as there are no XXXXXXX signs of any ongoing neurological disease. If it were stroke or stroke related, 2days is a long time for it to have been more clearly defined. Though it would be difficult to clearly map this out without further information, I will lean towards an appointment with your primary doctor and not an ER visit at this time. Let me know what your thoughts are.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
