I'm also getting dizziness which comes and goes sitting or standing. pressure in both ears gets worse if i bend forward. recently had a chest infection which cleared on it's own but left me with a dry cough now been on going for 3 weeks?

Labyrinthitis: Also called vestibulitis. These symptoms can be explained by a viral infection that blocks the normal drainage of the middle ear, and affects the balance organ in the inner ear. A decongestant (eg, pseudoephedrine) can help with the congestion, and Meclizine can help control the dizziness/vertigo. This problem usually gets better on its own. If worse, or if not better in a week see your doctor
