I know what your saying they just keep telling me it's my tubes from a virus and it will eventually leave but it hasn't in 4 months and now I get headaches with it too and they just reply with hmm.. I don't think they have a clue let me know if they find something to help you.
I know exactly what you are going through, I have many of the same symptoms. The increasing pressure in the ears - sometimes it feels like it unclogs for awhile then builds back up - I even get pressure and tingling in the nose and sinus area for over a month.
I get the same advice about it being an Eustachian tube dysfunction and try to be patient as it will likely resolve itself. Meanwhile we're suffering needlessly. I've been to the ENT twice - all he gave me was a steroid dose pack and Flonase nasal spray - neither of which has worked.
Whenever they don't know what it is they call it Eustachian tube dysfunction. Hope you have better luck than me and are feeling better soon.
This must probably be an Eustachian tube dysfunction, I think you can continue with the nasal spray, saline nasal drops and steam inhalation 2-3 times/day. Drink plenty of warm water. If the symptoms does not subside please do consult your ENT specialist. Any more doubts you are welcome.
