My ears have been stuffed up, feeling like they are filled with cotton, and it''s driving me CRAZY. I hate it. As a musician, I''m always really freaked out (probably a bit more than most people) when anything goes wonky with my hearing, and it''s driving me bonkers trying to get rid of it. My doctor checked them yesterday to make sure there wasn''t anything wrong and there wasn''t (nothing in there, no ear infection or anything)--they just need to drain the fluid that''s in there. (As an fyi, I have had an upper respiratory infection for almost 6 weeks and the ear problems have come and gone during that time but are supposed to just be another complication of the respiratory infection. The current ear situation has been present for a few days.)
Does anyone know any tips on how to get them to drain faster? Chewing gum seems to help sometimes. Anyone know any other tricks I could try? They''ve been like this for a few days and my birthday is on Thursday and I''d really like to get them better by then if I can.
Thanks!
