I have had a blocked ear since Friday and it hurts ALL the time and feels blocked, I've had A LOT of ear problems (specifically this ear) where it's been infected and I've been to the hospital a few times because of it.
I've tried the whole block your nose and blow thing but it does nothing
earbuds or q-tips do nothing
washing it with warm water does nothing
using those ear candles do nothing but make it hurt more.
Google seems to think I have Swimmers Ear.
Moral of the story is:
If you google symptons you'll probably find something way worse than what your problem is
DO NOT BE TAKING MEDICAL ADVICE FROM THE INTERNET, SEE A DOCTOR NOW!
