Hello. Hope you are doing well.
What you are describing is ear blockage due to cold, ears and nose is connected, air has to pass through the nose to the ears, which doesn’t happen if there is a cold.
You could try some cold medicine and steam inhalation to start with. I will be able to help you better with a in person consult.
Health Tips
Steam inhalation.
Avoid air travel with blocked nose.
