A member asked:

My ear is popping and pressure, can i wait 2-3 days to see a doctor?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Eustacian Tubes: Could be eustachian tube dysfunction which is very common. An unequal release of pressure between the inner ear and outside often due to a cold or allergies. If pain worsens or hearing decreases please see your doctor asap.
