Ears are blocked (Fluid or mucus inside)
My ears are blocked from last 5 months. My doctor removed the Fluid once a month back by injecting needle in ear and vaccuum out that fluid. But the problem is that Fluid came again and my ears are blocked again. He is not telling me why it is happening and I feel irritated whole time. My doctor is suggested that he will again remove the fluid.
I need a permanent solution. Please suggest .

You seem to be suffering from otitis media with effusion which is usually because of eustachian tube dysfunction. Usually nasal and nasopharyngeal cause should be ruled out. You need to undergo diagnostic nasal endoscopy if found normal then you may need to undergo surgery known as myringotomy with grommet insertion
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
