there is a pipe connecting ear to nose called Eustachian tube. Any obstruction in nose leads to ET blockage thus creating Negative pressure in ears leading to clicking sounds in ur case. To open ET do 1) steam inhalation 2) chew bubble gum 3) practice Valsalva manouvere( watch video in youtube and practise)
