Ears always feel very blocked. What’s the main reason?

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
I didn’t swim or take a shower. I still felt like I was blocked by water in my ears. What’s the matter?

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
In fact, some ear blockages can’t be solved simply by shaking your head and jumping.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
For example:

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
01. Cerumen embolism

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Cerumen embolism is the main cause of most ear blockages.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Cerumen embolism is caused by cerumen, or earwax as we often say, which gradually accumulates and fills most of the ear canal, which hinders the transmission of sound to the tympanic membrane, making the sound dull and low, and at the same time, the ear feels blocked hard.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
When the doctor helps you remove the earwax from the ear canal, the blockage will immediately disappear.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Some people may need regular help from a doctor to remove these annoying “blockages” due to the high “production” of earwax.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Summary: under normal circumstances, if you do not have hearing loss or any other symptoms of ear discomfort, the cause of ear block is mostly cerumen embolism.

02. Ear inflammation

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Ear inflammation is another common cause of ear blockage, which may be in the middle or outer ear.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Children are the most likely group to develop ear inflammation, of course, adults will also happen.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
The ear inflammation caused by the middle ear inflammation (secretory otitis media) may sometimes appear inexplicably, especially when the cold, rhinitis, proliferative tonsillar hypertrophy and so on are induced.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
The inflammation of the outer ear is often called “swimming ear”, because the children who often swim are most likely to cause the inflammation of the outer ear, mostly with earache and ear itch as the main complaint, some of which are associated with ear tightness.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Summary: if you have symptoms such as cold, nasopharynx, earache or fever, the feeling of ear blockage may be due to ear inflammation.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
03. Meniere’s disease

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Meniere’s disease is a kind of inner ear disease, which is mainly caused by hearing loss, vertigo and tinnitus. Sometimes, it is accompanied by ear obstruction and stuffy feeling. In most cases, single ear is affected by the disease.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
The sense of obstruction and the sense of stuffy distention are accompanied by the whole onset period. When the onset period is over, the sense of stuffy distention will disappear.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
It can be seen that the sense of ear blockage caused by Meniere’s disease can be relieved or eliminated by treating Meniere’s disease.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Summary: if you have a feeling of tightness and distention, as well as symptoms of hearing loss, dizziness and tinnitus, then Meniere’s disease may be the cause of ear blockage.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Usually, it’s hard for us to determine the cause of ear blockage, but doctors can diagnose it through otoscopy and so on.

< P style = "color:; font family: Arial, Verdana, sans serif;" >
Therefore, in case of ear blockage, if it is not solved by shaking your head and jumping a few times, it is recommended to go to a regular professional hospital for help as soon as possible.
