A simple home remedy for this issue that works even better than Swimmer's Ear it to make your own saline treatment. I had the same problem as you for MONTHS and the doctor's couldn't see anything in my ear, yet everytime I moved or bent over I'd hear "gloop gloop gloop". There was water trapped deep in my inner ear. An Ear, Nose and Throat doctor gave me this recipe.
Mix 2 cups warm water with 1 1/2 teaspoon of pickling salt (found in your grocery store on the same isle as flour and sugar) and 1/4 tsp of baking soda. Wash your hands and place a small amount of the liquid in your cupped hand. Plug one side of your nose and snort the solution up the other nostril 2 times. Repeat in other nostril. It will dry it all out.

sounds like you have semi-hard wax in your ear, when you turn your head it cause the ear canal to shift and lets air slip past making the POP, if you dont want to wait 2 weeks, take a syringe ( no needle ), fill it with warm soapy water, squirt that into you ear while holding your head over the sink or other recepticle, repeat until all the wax is out
you should propably do this reguarly yourself to keep this from happening again
PS ask your doctor about TMJ

It could be an ear infection. I have had lots of them it could be from allergies, or something like that. Try keeping a very warm towel on it, it will help the pain & hopefully help the clogged feeling.

I think that you should put a little bit of some stuff called swimear in it to try to dry out any water that may have gotten stuck in your ear. It really would also help for future reference to put that in right after you feel a pressure or popping in your ear. I prevents it from getting worse.

If you're anywhere in the U.S. it's probably due to allergies. It's that time of year....hayfever being the worst. The dr. will give you an antihistamine and you'll be fine after the first good hard frost! Good Luck! Happy Saturday!

1. Do you use ear phones to listen to music, walkman etc
2. Do you use a mobile phone a lot
3. Do you listen to loud music, been to a live concert....
All these things will affect your ears.
Still have it checked out, that's best

hey,I have had holes in my eardrum since i was very little and have never had them fixed so i have had my share of infections...I would recommend to you that you should not try and clean it out and don't put any water directly into it
