I have been really congested the past 5 days & the last 2 days my ears have been really stuffy. what can u do to get rid of painful stuffy ears?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pseudo...: Fluid that builds up in cavities such as the sinuses or the middle ear can be treated over the counter with decongestant medications. Pseudoephedrine is an active ingredient of many such decongestants, which is quite effective. Speak to a pharmacist about which decongestant is the best for you.
