Hi, I'm an Audiologist
Since none of those medications have helped, it is possible that the cause of your sensation is something other than blocked Eustachian tubes. Have you had any fever, tinnitus (sounds in the ear), or vertigo (spinning dizziness)?
Have you been to an Ear, Nose and Throat specialist and had a comprehensive audiological exam (which includes a tympanogram that measures the pressure in the middle ear space)? If yes, what was the outcome; and if no, that's what you need done to get your condition accurately diagnosed and properly treated.
In the meantime, try forcing air into your ears by holding your nose and mouth closed and blowing VERY GENTLY. Some people find relief by applying heat (like a hot water bottle) to their external ear.

Have you tried chewing gum? Sometimes the action of chewing equalizes the pressure in your ears. Or perhaps prolonged exposure to steam, such as from saunas or hot bathes and hot drinks.
If that doesn't work, see an ear-nose-throat doctor to find out what's going on with your ears.
Good luck!

peroxide and warm water mixture poured into the ear, then place a towel over the ear and let the mixture run out. It is definitely possible that the wind caused the ache. Should be gone before the day is through if the breeze was the cause.

How long has this been going on? Maybe you should see a doctor!
Try massaging garlic oil (from the pharmacy section of Wal-Mart or a grocery store--just break open {I bite them open} a gelcap) behind and below your ear. Put a warm wet washcloth on it. Chew gum (helps open the eustacian tube).

You could have a buildup of wax in your ears. For that, lay on your side and put a few drop of mineral oil in your ear. After about 30 minutes, flush it out. You can buy kits for this at your druggist and they can look in your ear and tell you if you have a wax buildup. I always recommend that one sees a doctor.

its caused by blocked eustachian tubes in your throat that go to your ears...a hot bath with steam helps and so does antihistimine...
