I woke up this morning in my apartment with my right ear hurting. You know when your on planes your ears pop, normally you can get rid of it by yawning or chewing gum. My ear is excatly like that I can't hear much in that ear and I've tried almost everything (including gum and yawning)! What's going on and how do I fix it!!!!!
Also I want help not criticism. I'm not afraid to report!
Answer:Last time this happened to me I tried ear candles as mentioned above....didn't work. I ended up going to my doctor where a nurse irrigated the canal. It felt really cool and cleared the pain , pressure, and maddening muffled sound right away.
You might have an ear infection - best to go to the doctor and get some anti-biotics (assuming that's the diagnosis).
Sounds like a beginning of an ear infection.
That probably means you have an ear infection.
Call thy doctor, set up an apoitment.
It could be:
1. Infection
2. Swimmer's Ear
3. A LOT of wax buildup
