How can i drain the mucous from my ear. I had a cold/sinus infection for two days and from what I have read, when there is a crackling or squeaky sound in my ear when swallowing indicates mucous in the eustachian tube. It is very annoying and uncomfortable. Please help. Thanks.
Here according to history you can have sinusitis along with congestive symptoms .... It can be viral infection and eustacian tube edema can be there according to history. .
You needs to be given benadryl like antihistaminic drug to relieve congestion .. If needed short term steroid can be given ...
Steam inhalation done three times a days. ...
Drink more water... Spicy food avoided as they are irritant to respi tract ... Smoking not done if habit .....
Take one tsp honey and one tsp ginger juice mixture for seven days ...
If still no improvement consult ENT surgeon for examination.... Otoscopy examination also done to rule out ear infection...
Take care. ...
