A member asked:
Can saline nasal spray make eustachian tube dysfunction worse?. do you spray it towards your ears like you do for the eustachian tube?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, and yes: Saline nasal spray would help in Eustachian Tube Dysfunction, and yes you spray it inside your nose pointing towards your ears to irrigate the whole nasal cavity and reach the throat where the Eustachian tube opening is located
