Hello doctor, I have a blocked ear & it feels like water has gone in.i have tried using soliwax drops twice for 4 days and mullein oil after 1 week,but it's continued to be blocked.there is no pain.Avoided going to the clinic due to covid. Can you please suggest if I can wait,since there is no pain,or should I use some medicine. Thanks. Regards

It looks like you're having eustachian tube dysfunction..the ear block sensation is due to this... you have to do steam inhalation , bubble gum chewing and practice Valsalva manner (see in YouTube)... you did not mention any other complaints like nasal block , cold etc
