I've always had ears that are wet feeling full & send 3 diff ent's which couldn't see anything wrong other than fluids in my eust tube & my ears don't?

Eustachian tubes: Only the openings in the throat can be viewed. These tubes allow air to equalize pressures in your middle ears. With allergic diseases, pollens, chronic sinus disease and other upper respiratory irritants that cause inflammation, the membranes that line these tubes leak mucous fluids which can cause an obstruction and fluids behind the drums. This and unequal pressures cause "fullness". Try saline
