These items are interrelated: . The tube that then relates the middle ear opens at the back of your throat at the level of your nose. If you clog up your nose you may also clog up the eustachian tube. Over-the-counter antihistamines such as Claritin (loratadine) or Allegra are ofttimes helpful.

Likely allergies: Most people with the symptoms you describe are having difficulties with allergies. The same processes that can give you a runny nose can interfere with drainage of small amounts of fluid from the ear through a special drainage tube. You might wish to try an allergy medication or actually yawning can even help with the ear. See your physician if not resolving promptly or if ear begins to hurt.

Nose: Sounds like allergies and if so antihistamines would help. Sometimes if the nose and the ear are clogged on the same side it could be related to your teeth. (Your dental nerve goes to those areas.) See an ENT to check it out
