Suggest Treatment For Ear Blockage

I was outside in around 30 degree weather running and after my run I felt that my ear had a muffled feeling and it was more difficult to hear out of that ear. There was a strong cold wind and I also forgot my hat. It has been roughly six hours since then and it doesn t seem to have gotten better. Can you tell me what the problem is and how I should fix it?

Hello
This may be due to eustachian tube dysfunction.
Try a nasal decongestant with steam inhalation
