Hi lybrate-user. I hope you have used xylomist in your nose. You might be also having a nasal discharge which might have accidently entered into your ear and causes ear block problem. Usually happen when patient with nasal discharge sniffs in the discharge, it then goes into the ear through a tube connecting nose and ear. Use saline nasal drops, use steam inhalation and also antihistamine tablets at night. If you have any other symptoms then we have to deal accordingly. For more details you can always consult.
