How to unblock your ear?

Here are some techniques you can try to unblock your ear:

Valsalva maneuver: Gently pinch your nose and blow as if you're trying to blow your nose. This can help to equalize the pressure in your ears and clear any blockages.

Toynbee maneuver: Pinch your nose and swallow while keeping your mouth closed. This can help to open the eustachian tube, which is the passageway that connects your middle ear to the back of your throat.

Ear drops: Over-the-counter ear drops can help to soften earwax and clear blockages. Follow the directions on the package for how to use them.

Steam: Inhaling steam can help to loosen earwax and relieve pressure. You can do this by taking a hot shower or bath, or by holding your head over a bowl of hot water.

Olive oil: Putting a few drops of warm olive oil in your ear can help to soften earwax and clear blockages. Lie on your side for a few minutes with the affected ear facing up so the oil can drain out.

Chewing gum: Chewing gum can help to open the eustachian tube and relieve pressure.

Use a nasal decongestant: If your ear is blocked due to allergies or a cold, using a nasal decongestant can help reduce inflammation and open up the eustachian tube.

If you've tried these techniques and your ear is still blocked, you should see a doctor. They can check for any underlying medical conditions that may be causing the blockage and recommend the best treatment option.
