A member asked:

I have sinus issues and due to this my ears keep blocking.i am taking regular antihistamines and my doc has prescribed flixonase but no relief. help. ?

See an ENT: When problems like these don’t respond to standard therapy, it’s time to seek specialty help. See an otolaryngologist (ENT, ears/nose/throat). Checking for septal deviation, nasal polyps, etc...One thing that may help in the meantime is autoinsufflation.
