You should probably try warning them up by rubbing your hands together on them or wearing something over them... hmm... maybe jumping up and down might help? It's for the times when water gets stuck in your ear after you get out of the pool...

Did you recently have a cold?  If so, this cough can be the final stage of your cold, which in itself, is a virus.  This cough can linger for a long time (as much as 6 months!)  You may need to get something to suppress your cough.  As with all virus's, you will have to wait it out.\ngood luck!

You might want to see an ear, nose, and throat specialist.  I thought I had allergies, but it was a deviated septum.  Do you have a hard time breathing when you get sick?  Could be a deviated septum.

Please consult you doctor. What you may be experiencing is allergic rhinitis and might not need to drink decongestant at all. When I have clogged nose, I steam. The hot air you breathe would make the mucus melt or not as hard. So you can easily blow it out. If you have sinnusitis, this would help a lot too. Just boil a cup of water and let it stand for a couple of minutes and breathe the steam for five to ten minutes. Just make sure the steam is not to hot because it might burn your face

A blocked nose will have you feeling like you have the flue. The long term affect will drain you. \nA common cause of a persistent blocked nose is an allergy to house dust mites or pets. Most supermarkets sell Anti histamines for this over the counter or you could ask a chemist if your unsure.

probably go to the doctor and get some medicine. My longest cold was probably for 2 and a half weeks.

You need to go to a doctor as soon as possible! that sounds like something that should be checked by a proffesional!Search for a physician that treats problems of the ears nose and throat!

You probably have fluid behind your eardrum.  You may have just a cold or you may have an infection.  A doctor or ENT can look in your ears and tell you if you need to take a decongestant or not.  Try pinching your nose closed and blowing or swallowing, it can sometimes clear your ears.

I recommend going to an otolaryngologist (Ear, Nose and Throat doctor) for a hearing test and medical examination.  It is important to be as detailed as you possibly can with your symptoms, both at the time of onset and since.  Have you had any dizziness, or just feeling faint with hot flashes?  Are there any noises in your ear, or just that sounds are distorted?  Have the symptoms improved, worsened, or stayed stable since it started?\n\nWith sudden-onset symptoms, usually the sooner you start treatment, the better your chances for recovery.  Please don't delay any further.  Good Luck!

I have had humming in my ears, and heard it especially loud when i would tilt my head in certain angles.  Well, it was very annoying so I went to the doctor.  I found out that I had fluid in my ear.  It was far back enough so I couldn't get it out on my own.  I had to take some prescribed medicine called guafinine or something like that - which is the same thing as Mucinex; Mucinex can be purchased over the counter. (store brands are just as effective), and what it did was break up the mucous-like fluid in my ear and help it to drain.  It drains down your throat - rather nasty, but hey that's what happened.  It actually happened after I went swimming and overcame a bad cold.  So I don't really know if it was water from swimming or build up from the cold.   Hope this helps you.

1.  Try blow drying the ear gently.  It could be trapped water.\n\nor\n\n2.  Try a drop of rubbing alcohol in the ear a couple of times a day and give it a few days to work\n\nIf all else fails, it could be that soft wax has blocked the ear canal and it needs to be irrigated.  You can buy flush kits at the pharmacy, but it may be better to see your doctor

Could be any number of things, have somebody who knows what they´re looking at just check them out. \nI could be just clogged up with cerumen (earwax) which is easily removed or it could be something really serious like a blocked artery to your hearing organ that is causing this (sort of like a coronary just in your ear). \nYes, it could very well be dust from the fiberglass factory but you need to go see a doctor within the next couple of days, preferrably and ENT specialist. \nHope it turns out to be something harmless and easy to take care of!

Jesus, is everyone paranoid or what!!! Sounds like you have a bit of a head cold with a snotty nose.  Seems like your feeling ok apart from having to blow your nose a bit more.  You are unlikely to have an infection that can be treated by antibiotics if you don't have temperature. I'm sure your nose will be back to normal in a few days.

You can drive yourself crazy worrying about that. Don't ! There is miniscule risk of catching something contagious. Very miniscule. Hope your cold is better.

How long ago did you have it done?  As soon as the ENT pulled the 4 billion yards of gauze (LOL) out of my sinus (3 days after surgery) I felt fine.  I could breathe well for the first time in years.  And it's still good 8 years post-op.  I only needed the Percocet for the first two days.  I never had ear aches or tooth aches.  You better talk to your surgeon.

I heard that having ozone treatment is amazing for coldsores apparently they never come back, it was on This Morning quite a while a go and i took down the website.  Have a look, hope it helps!  Good luck!

You may have chronic sinusitis with a bacterial infection deep in your sinus. You should probably go to an ear, nose, & throat docter and have it looked at. He will try a cycle of antibiotics and if that doesn't work you may need sinus surgery
