Persisting air bubble in ear

2018-11-17 13:10:05
I have this persisting blockage in my left ear - it feels like an air bubble blocking my hearing. When I try and put a finger in my ear to shake it off, it goes away and I can hear everything loud and clear. Here is the problem, I feel like there is another bubble of sorts coming up subsequently, every time I shake it off. Can someone tell me what this is? Thank you
