Hi pleahn, how are your sinuses now?
I also get the neti pot water up in my ears when I use it. It's a bit of a catch 22 because your sinuses are swollen from inflammation and infection so the water that you put in your sinuses doesn't drain well. But if you don't flush out the infection with saline your symptoms will get worse.
When my ears are plugged (as recommended by my Dr.) I plug my nose and gently blow air into my ears to equalize the air pressure in them. This promotes drainage. I repeat this procedure many times during the day when I have an infection. It also helps to dry out the ear canal and Eustachian tube.
Since my last posting I have discovered that a few drops of colloidal silver 3-4 times a day in my sinuses is the quickest way to heal an infection. I put the drops in my nostril and tilt my head and let in run back into my sinuses and towards my ear canal.
I also supplement with oil of oregano and garlic taken internally. I 100% agree with Jim Bean that my sinuses and ear problems are caused by poor posture which for me was caused by a cole of accidents. As well as allergies which only ad to the issue. I recommend reading through these posts for further advice. Also, try massage on the neck and jaw for drainage
My ears are clogged and congested. The neti pot causes my ears to have more fluid. is there a way to use the neti pot without getting water in my ears? should avoid then neti pot? i have major sinus issues.
I have a question regarding the neti pot. Ive used it before and when the water went into my nose the water also went into my ears for a little. It felt uncomfortable bed my ears are very clogged up and feel like they are in a vacuum.

lay down and place a Ice pack on the back of your neck. It will take a few minutes, but it will open up the euastatian tubes and your ears will open up. It will happen again, but use the ice pack again. Also use nose spray and that will eventually clear up your ears.
