A member asked:
Ent #: can daily post nasal drip (doctor not seen yet) caused by continued air conditioned environment ever result in middle ear fluid build up?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes.: The Eustachian tube connects the nasopharynx to the inner ear; whenever conditions lead to nasal congestion, fluid can then travel and accumulate in the inner ear.
