Blocked ears won't pop

2022-11-11 18:04:31
So, I had a sore throat and runny nose since yesterday evening. Though only the left nose was runny and I also felt pain in the left forehead and face. I took one wikoryl tablet which was prescribed previously by my doctor. I inhaled steam today and since then my left ear has been feeling blocked. The right ear is not much blocked, I tired blowing out air with my mouth and nose closed but only the right ear is popping. I didn't try it any harder as I'm scared it'll cause any harm. Tried steam inhalation again and Otrivin nasal spray but they didn't work. The left ear is constantly blocked and is very uncomfortable. I can't sleep and having a lot of anxiety because of that.
