Maybe there is: You may have eustachian tube dysfunction, with fluid in your inner ear. Can you clear your ears (hold your nose and try to blow your fingers off your nose) as if you were descending in an airplane ("valsalva maneuver")? That's a good test for patency of your eustachian tubes. If you can't pop your ears, try Afrin nasal spray several times/day, and continue to do a gentle valsalva.
