Suggest Treatment For Slightly Blocked Ear While Suffering From Flu

Hi doc. I recently had flu, running nose sneezing, the entire package. I am better now, but my right ear feels slightly blocked. There is also a constant khurr khurr noise in that ear that seems to synchronize with my heartbeat. When I blow my left nostril, there is whistling of sorts in my right ear, and a pressure builds up in the right ear, making it feel very very blocked, then a movement of sorts occurs and that pressure is reduced making the ear feel less blocked. If I blow again and play around with the blowing a bit, I can reduce the pressure bit my bit, but the ear is never really completely open. And the khurr khurr noise is there, which runs at a beat with my heartbeat. It is really annoying as I can hear myself louder in the right ear and it confuses me while talking. Help please.
