Ear Blockage

2021-06-03 04:32:57
2 weeks back I felt an right ear block so I visited near by ENT and she prescribed antibiotics for 5 days and then cold meds. However I didn't feel any relief. So I have visited my family Doc , he's prescribed few antibiotics and asked me to continue for another 5 days. The ENT asked me to get an audiometer test which came normal. After 15 days as well I still feel my right ear being blocked. There's no relief. It feels that it's blocked when I eat , laugh . It's affecting me very much. What has to be done please help to relive this .
