Pop your ears: Block your nose, close your mouth and gently exhale. You might hear bubbling sounds. This may help clear it. Talk to your doctor about using something like afrin (oxymetazoline).

Probably not: There's reall no good way to rid yourself of the fluid. Decongestants work best followed by steroids.
