Ear feeling

[sumithunderbird]

My ear has felt weird over the last year or so.  I went to many doctors and only one had an answer and told me the condition but I forgot the name - in our language he said there's basically "snot in your ears".  Later took an allergy test and came up good with the exception of grass.  First test, I had a lump (reaction), second I had very little reaction.

Basically my ear feels "clogged" when I have a cold.  When I go to sleep on that side of the bed, I wake up and when I yawn i have the yawning feeling last a second longer than my yawn did (irritating forsure).  Loud noises sound "fuzzy" in the ear.  My ear doesn't feel clogged all day, its just when i wake up I get that yawning feeling staying with me for a few minutes and loud noises really bug it.

I've lived with it for over a year, can this be treated?

This sounds like Eustachian tube dysfunction.  Treating the allergies is a good first step.  If the problem persists, and there is chronic fluid/hearing loss, a tympanostomy tube could be considered.

While digging up some information to educate my PCP, I came across a paper that sounds as if you may have this, But because I only read the opening sentence I can't comment further about this.  And of course, your problem could be most anything else as well..

  As I mention in every post on this particular forum I have a hole between my inner ear and my brain. Superior Semicircular Canal Dehiscence.  Another Dehiscence (the paper I mention) can be between the inner ear and the sinus.  The concept of this paper sounds like it could be what you have(?).
