How Can Tinnitus And Ear Congestion Be Treated?

I recently starting having buzzing in my ear. It feels like I need to unplugged my ear. This started a few days ago. I've tried an over the counter wax removal kit, but I'm wondering if I need to do this more than once to help to clear out what might be a build up of wax? I don't have any hearing loss or pain. Thank you.

Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. Tinnitus and ear congestion as per your query seems you have symptoms of exposure to very loud noise, meniere's disease, and wax build up in ear. I would suggest you to do meditation and light physical exercise. You should do valsalva maneuver and consult ENT specialist for proper examination. You should get it examined immediately to prevent further exaggeration of symptoms. Doctor may order CT scan , blood test , examination with otoscope . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics amoxicillin or penicillin, anti inflammatory medications. Supplement like ginkgo biloba can be very helpful. Do warm compresses.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
