Accepted Answer

Decongestant: If the decongestant is not helping and it has been more than a couple of days you will need to see a doctor, most likely your symptoms are self limited and should resolve on their own.

Boise in the ear: You need to see your doctor to see if your ear are or not infected. Then he need to finding why is the tinnitus in your ears coming from

Question 3

Accepted Answer

See Dr: Possibly has an eardrum perforation. Should be examined by dr/urgent care / er / or ear-nose-throat dr to confirm what is going on.

Question 4

can tmj cause ear problems.. i have ringing in my right ear. i can hear but when on the phone if i use that ear the people sound like robots..?

Accepted Answer

They can be related: It is possible that they are effecting each other. I would recommend a consultation with your dentist and possibly and ENT to identify the causes of the problem. Tinnitus (ear ringing) can be a very troubling problem that can be treated. So can tm problems. You will need to have both types of special doctors help you.

Question 5

mild stinging pain in inner ear. mildly distorted sounds (echo-robot like), no wax, no other symptoms. sinus pockets feel full though. been 3 weeks.

Accepted Answer

? middle ear problem: as otitis media (middle ear infection), it can affect your hearing. Middle ears are considered part of the sinuses by some ENT authorities, so sinus congestion can affect your middle ears too. Saline nasal washes can help till you see an ENT specialist, you may need more medications as antibiotics or a CT of your sinuses later on, best wishes

Question 6

left ear almost feels clogged but no ear wax in it, voices sounds almost robotic. only started this morning. help please?

Accepted Answer

Inner ear clogged: I wonder how you know there is no wax in your ear. I would need to look in the ear to figure that out for sure. Sudden changes like this seem like a congested nose blocking the eustachian tube, with no pain an infection is less likely, not impossible. It may get better with Flonase. You should see a doctor in person for advice specific to you.

Question 7

very little sinus drainage. but everyone that talks to me sounds robotic and my ears feel full some pressure and can't hear very well.?

Accepted Answer

Sinusitis.: This could still be sinusitis or allergies.  Especially with a sinus infection, the fluid produced can become so thick and viscous that it doesn't drain; rather, it gets stuck in the sinus chambers, causing pressure that can extend up the Eustachian tubes to the inner ears.

Question 8

hearing sometimes sounds robotic like the movie wall-e. there's no pain. i do have allergies and swimmers ear but don't listen to loud music?

Accepted Answer

A vibrational: and muffled character to hearing can be due to something up against the ear drum. Earwax, water, foreign body or even insects are pretty common.
Without an actual examination, I cannot give specific medical advice on your particular health,

Question 9

what is a rushing sound in your ears mean.?

Accepted Answer

Multiple things: The first could be wax build up in the ears, and the sound is created by slight movement in the tympanic membrane (ear drum). Or it could be a sign of high blood pressure. Or tinnitus which is a fancy name for noise/ringing in the ears. This is caused by many of things I mentioned before as well as age related damage. You could visit your doctor/ENT/Neurologist to help figure out the exact cause.

Question 10

what could cause a squishy sound in your ears?

Accepted Answer

Squishy ears: Water is most likely. May be trapped behind wax. Have someone take a look.
