Suggest Treatment For Clogged Ears

I'm having problems hearing out of my ears. For the last few days, I've tried cleaning my ears out thinking that was the problem. That only works for one ear a day then the other ear has problems the next day. I want to know what I should do to unclog my ears.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain clogged ears can occur due to causes like:
-Blocked Eustachian tubes leading to Eustachian tube dysfunction.
-Excessive ear wax accumulation.
-Fluid accumulation behind eardrum.
-Chronic ear infection etc..

As the ears are clogged recurringly, there is a possibility that there is some disorder associated with it as I explained above..

Therefore you need to consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and a thorough clinical evaluation and investigations like x ray, MRI Scan, otoscopy etc can help in diagnosis and treatment can be done accordingly..

You can be advised decongestant Oral as well as nasal sprays..
If there is excessive ear wax accumulation removal of the same can help..
In case of ear infection antibiotics can be advised..
If there is fluid that does not dissipate with conservative or medical treatment, then surgical drainage can be done..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
