I am congested and my ears are blocked?

Good morning, ma'am,

Do you have any other symptoms such as a runny or stuffy nose? Are you taking any other medications? Are you pregnant or trying to become pregnant or are you breastfeeding?

Thank you for your time!

Thanks for the information!

i can suggest the use of a decongestant nasal spray like Drixoral or Dristan, 2 sprays in each nostril twice a day for a maximum of 5 days.

After the sprays, I recommend the valsalva technique: take a deep breath, then close your nostrils and mouth, and try to breathe out afterwards. Swallowing immediately afterwards can help to rebalance the pressure in the sinuses.

If this technique does not work after 3 days, you should consult a doctor as a precaution.

Sincerely

Tom Samaha, pharmacist

We'd love to!
