Eustachian tube dys: The middle & inner ear is an amazing & complex structure. It connects to the back of your throat through the eustachian tube (ET) which is designed to equalize pressure & assist with proper nasal & sinus drainage. ET dysfunction results in the symptoms you have. Use a steam vaporizer by your bed or put towel over your head by sink running with hot water. Or try OTC saline nasal spray or netipot.
