How to Pop Your Ears
7. Nasal Corticosteroids
When we are ill, it is common for us to experience congestion and a runny nose, and this is usually down to the lining of the nasal passages becoming inflamed. This inflammation can cause a number of problems, including preventing air from flowing freely through the Eustachian tube.
Nasal corticosteroids are readily available that will help to reduce inflammation of the nasal tissues. This can, in turn, unblock the Eustachian tube, and pressure in the middle ear can be released. Such sprays are often available over the counter, and they can also help to relieve you of other discomfort caused by inflammation.
