Could Intermittent Blocking Of Ear Be Due To Concussion Following An Accident?

I have post-concussion symptoms still, four months after an accident where I was smoked in the head with a mattress that went through my windshield. I was hit on the left side of my head. However, my right ear keeps intermittently blocking. Could this be from the concussion?
