I'll call my regular doc tomorrow. Not sure what he can do. Can't afford to go back to the ENT specialist because I lost my insurance in January.
One of my co workers gave me an essential oil blend to apply around my ear, and it's helping a tiny bit with the pressure
Have you tried or looked into clearing your sinuses to help some? I used a neti pot daily for a couple weeks everyday and it helped my tinnitus a lot. I also noted that I had pressure on my ear I had become accustomed to. My oldest daughter also has had ear issues her whole life, tubes, the whole thing. She still has sinus issues. She had her tonsils and ad noids removed, but the tonsils grew back. She's been doing the neti pot for a couple weeks now and her ears have stopped bothering her.

Her problem might be different than yours though of course. Maybe you have done all this. But I thought I'd mention it because two different folks with different types of ear issues with a few common symptoms, saw relief with it.

Haven't tried a neti pot yet.......always been kinda scared of drowning myself.
But at this point, it's high on my list of things to do next!

It's a strange feeling at first. It's kind of a "relax and let it happen" thing. It does feel nice after you get used to it. Man the stuff that comes out of there at first. It's kinda shocking.

Well, I'll give you that. We have quite possibly the most annoying "Calling the Hogs" ritual in the history of college sports. If you want to google it, have at it. If you can imagine being in a stadium of 75k people and hearing it.....wow, welcome to Arkansas...lol
