Plugged Ear After Blowing Nose This Morning, Any Suggestions Please
I blew my nose & left ear is plugged, getting over a cold. Do I need decongestant , any suggestions ?

This is due to eustachian tube blockage. It usually happens after an attack of common cold.
Take decongestent, mucolytic agent, steam inhalation, oxymetaxoline nose drop. all for 5 days n try valsalva maneuvre.,
