my ear is congested and ringing but my sinuses are clear after having a cold .ho!


Question: the barometric pressure changed drastically(stormy day) the day my cold was clearing up and it feels like altitude changes
Answers:
Try sweet oil (olive oil) to loosen up anything built up in there, then wash out with an ear wax removal kit. Leave the sweet oil in over night first. Works for me.

Swimmers ear may help also, it's really just Isopropryl alcohol and is used to evaporate fluid inside. But it won't clear out excess wax build up.

Other Answers:
The last time I had an ear infection, the doctor recommended that on a regular weekly basis I rinse the ear in the shower, placing the hose against the ear with warm water. Haven't had an ear problem in two years. You should go see a doctor if the problem lasts more than a week. You could have a middle ear infection and need medical help!!
I used to candle my daughters ear and it helped greatly. Here are two sites referencing candling, one for, the other against. You choose.
