The most common: Cause of clogged ears is ear wax. The accumulation can be considerable over time. Consult with your PCP or an otolaryngologist to have your ears checked. A quick exam can confirm or rule out a wax issue. Good luck.

Could be TMJ: True, clogged ears can be a symptom of TMJ/TMD, but I would see an ENT Dr. first. Popping noises of the jaw normally signify that there is a TMJ element, though (a disk displaced forward,) and should be evaluated.
