Ear clogging and Pain due to cold
I had contracted COVID before 8 days. Fever subsided in a couple of days while cold still persists. My right ear got blocked/clogged because of cold and it didn't pain initially. Since yesterday there is considerable pain in my inner ear.I haven't had any issue with my ear like this before. I am still under self quarantine( 8th day) and will visit an ENT in a couple days(after 10 day quarantine). No discharge of any sort from the ear. Blood Work(CBC,CRP and D-Dimer) is normal. Any assistance to tide over the pain will be highly appreciated.

Till you visit an ENT specialist, you can take Tab. Wikoryl -10 twice daily and sinarest nasal spray 1 puff bilaterally thrice daily. Also do valsalva manoeuvre if you can.

If the ear block is due to cold, decongest your nose with a steroid spray like furamist and a tablet mucolite or relent. It should help till you see the ENT but make sure to see one and get your ears examined as it should not be due to some other cause
