your ears may be plugged with wax. but a few drops of hydrogen peroxide for a few days. If not better you will have to see a ENT doctor for exam and management

Hello, your ear symptoms sound like they are due to a eustachian tube dysfunction. The lining in your nose continues into the eustachian tube. Any condition affecting your nose will in turn cause ear symptoms. I would recommend afrin nasal spray as directed for 5 days. An OTC decongestant can be used as directed thereafter for 7-10 days. If the symptoms persist, then see your ENT.
