Hi guys,

I've had T for about 5 months now.. a month or two ago my ear just randomly clogged TOTALLY.. after a few days it disappeared and now I'm not recognizing it most of the time..

But when I think about it it's still slightly clogged... When I try to equalize the pressure I'm able to in both ears but it will almost instantly be slightly clogged in the right ear - like the seconds after.. It's not that I can't live with it.. it just annoys me a bit that my right ear feels slightly clogged compared to my left and I can't equalize the pressure 100%..

Or i can but the clogginess will return immediately even though it's very limited... Maybe I've had all my life and I'm overthinking about the clogginess.. I don't know.

Is it normal that u can't equalize the pressure in both ears and one of them will feel slightly more "open" than the other??

sorry for bad english :)

best regards
 
I've had the same problem since Feb. It has gotten better but not 100% yet. From my experience I can tell you that it does get better, but it may take some time.
 
Have you had yours checked for wax? Same thing happened to me, i would wake up and my ear was completely blocked but it wouuld improve after a few days. I went to my gp and she said the ear is full of wax.
 
No wax.. And yes my ear isn't as clogged as it first was, but It happened like a month ago I think, and it's still slightly clogged when I think about it. I especially feel the difference from my left ear, when I try to unclog my ears they both UNCLOG almost equally but when I sink some spit the moments after my right ear clog slightly, where my left ear is completely clear.. It doesn't bother me most of the time, but what bothers me is just the fact, that it shouldn't be this way I guess? Maybe It has been this way all of my life and I just first recognized after my T, but I don't think so as I out of the blue just randomly got this HUGE clog on my right ear a month ago (which is now as mentioned is better)
 
Kristian,
Try steam inhalation and Sudafed to clear any mucous in your tubes and should work a treat...lots of love glynis
