A couple days ago my ear popped as I was walking around similar to when you're going down a hill in a car. I tried to plug my nose and hold my breathe tight to see if it would pop it again but it made it worse. I ended up with no feeling in my left ear and no hearing. I don't have any pain. I got motion sickness from it making me dizzy. This is the second day since that has happened and I have slight feeling back in it but still no hearing. I was wanting to know if anyone else has had a similar problem and how long it took for it to clear up and if there is anything I could try to do to get the pressure balanced again?

You have fluid behind the eardrum. I could become infected if it sits there for a while. Go to your health care provider to get either a prophylactic antibiotic and/or a steroid shot to try to decrease the swelling and bring the fluid out. Also, Nasonex might work well for you to open up your eustacian tubes. Good luck.

you most likely have too much wax in your ears and it has blocked your ear canal, go to the doctor to clean it out. DO NOT push in ear buds as they will make things worse.

yes, thats happened to me. its when your body adjusts to the air from going up to down pressure gets in your ear which causes it to pop. its really annoying, i always chew gum when im in places that it will happen that helps. it goes away eventually
