Eustachian tube dysf: This is likely your Eustachian tube, the one that connects the ear to the throat. Try grabbing your nose and closing your lips and blowing. If your ears pop that is a good thing to do. You may want to try some Flonase over the counter and spray 2 sprays in each nostril 2 times a day. This will reduce the inflammation in the nose around the Eustachian tube.
