Right ear blocked
My right ear has been blocked ever since I got I’ll around a month ago , I’ve been given drops and decongestant sprays but nothing seems to be working and my hearing is still muffled. When the nurse looked in my ear the first time she said it was swollen , at this time I was having pain , but my recent trip back the doctor said it looked like a healthy ear. I’m not having pain like I did when it first blocked but I want it gone
