Left Ear clogged and lymph node

Question

Asked for Male, 28 Years

I have been feeling my left ear has been clogged for the last 3 months. It's not continuous. I can feel this on alternate days. And also I have a lymph node from last year (not very palpable) just below my left ear (between jaw and ear). I had a neck ultrasound a year before, lymph node reported as subcentrometric 1b and II LN with well maintained fatty hilum. And also for the ear, I consulted an ENT. Had a CT temporal bone. The result is normal. But still I feel the clogging in the ear sometimes. Sometimes it's very irritating. What to do in this case? Is it possible that LN is putting pressure from inside to the left ear canal? Thanks
