Don't go poking things in your ears. The ear is complicated and has three chambers if you will and th problem could be in any of them, the outer, middle or inner ear. I strongly suggest visiting your doctor again. Let them accept the challenge of solving the problem.

Hello. Your ear issues could be the Eustachian tube. This tube bridges the back of the nose with the middle ear space, just behind the eardrum. If you have allergy or sinus issues, this is a more common finding. You could try over the counter afrin nasal spray x 5 days then STOP. If this helps, ask your ENT doc for an Eustachian Tube (ET)Evaluation. ET dilation may help.
