I have had issues with my ears for about 5 months now. I do have allergies (hay fever, mold, pollen, animal dander). I had fluid in my ear, pressure, and it squeaked when I swallowed or yawned. I went to the doctor, that told me to take decongestants. I took decongestants such as pseudoephedrine, Allegra-D, Claritin-D, etc, for months, but they didn't help. I was given two different types of steroids (pill and nasal spray) that got rid of the fluid, but not the pressure or squeaking.
