I : I would also recommend that you see an ENT provider. I would expect that you would have additional allergic symptoms such as runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing and possibly itchy/watery eyes if the ear symptoms were primarily allergic. If everything is normal at the ENT visit then it would be a good idea to have allergy testing so then you know if you have allergies.
