Flonase ears
Common Questions and Answers about Flonase ears
flovent
I have had blocked ears and coughing yellow phlem up for almost 2 months; it's beginning to clear this past week in my ears and the cough isn't as bad. I am taking pseudaphed during the day, benadryl at night and flonase. (Bad spelling) Now my throat is tight and it feels like I am about to get larengitis.
Is it getting better or worse; should i keep doing what I am doing.
Got the past month I've had constant lightheadedness and clogged ears. I've tried 3 different antibiotics for sinus infection. Also tried flonase, allegra, and Sudafed. Nothing seems to help. I feel pressure mostly in my forehead. I don't have any congestion with mucus or anything. I've had a sinus x-ray, CT scan, and MRI, which were all fine and showed nothing wrong with sinuses. I usually clean my ears out with a q tip after showering.
I have been experiencing moderate to severe postnasal drip and ringing in the ears. Moved to Chicago several years ago from Phoenix so the doctor suggested that I may be suffering from allergies as a result. Blood test confirmed grass allergy. Have been using Flonase (SP?) for about 1 month coupled with nasal rinsing system but still have the ringing and drainage. Should I be worried about another culprit besides allergies causing these awful symptoms??
Did the doc suggest trying occasional antihistamines. He can also give you a prescription for cortisone nose spray like flonase. You could get some allergy tests, could be allergic to something, like pet hair. Keep yourself from breathing in cold air also, could make it worse. Try vicks rub on your throat also and get those tests and talk more to the doc for more referrals for allergist and prescriptions if it doesn't get better soon. If you have pets, might be pet dander.
I've never had allergies of any kind. Then I noticed my nose was runny sometimes. Sneezing some. Nothing alarming. Then I woke up and was having trouble swallowing - felt like something was stuck in my throat. Doc said there was tons of drainage - the diagnosis: allergies.
I started zyrtec and flonase, and got a HEPA air purifier. I've had that for about 2 weeks. Annnd now I've developed ear infections in BOTH ears due to the allergies, even taking all that and with the filter.
I have been having dizzy spells , cracking and popping in ears since Jan 25, 2009. I have seen family doctor and he put me on Anivert and Flonase, it doesn't seem to be helping. Anyone have any helpful hints?
Had CT scan and left sinus (ehtmoid and maxillary) are fill with mucous. Ears crunch and crackle every time I swallow. Dr. says I have severe staph infection, swollen eustachian tubes, How long will this take to heal? I'm on 3rd round of antibiotics, flonase, saline spray, zyrtec. Any thoughts appreciated. Also, my ears constantly feel like I have to pop them, which I can do by just pushing pressure up through my tongue.
Shortly after I developed serious sinus problems where I had major swelling on the inside of my nose along with pain on the bridge. And then........I woke up with ringing in my ears 1 1/2 weeks later. The ringing got louder as the sinus problems continued. Short of 3 sinus infections to date I really don't have too much to complain about with my sinuses. The tinnitus on the other hand is a big problem.
I only ask because my ENT did not seem to think there was anything amiss... Unfortunately, I am still dizzy all the time, I have tinnitus, I have a fullness in my ears ( and they pop quite often ) and I still suffer from headaches on a daily basis... If I don't have Menieres then I would sure like to know what the hell is going on.
So the prednisone and flonase haven't done much to help so far. I know it's peak pollen and allergy season right now in the mid-atlantic but it makes me worry. Today has been worse than any day in the past few weeks.
Every day both my ears get a lot of pressure in them it gradually starts and get's worse as the day goes then let's up late in the evening. I've tried decongestants and nasal sprays with no relief any ideas what's causing this and how to get rid of it.
A few days later I noticed pressure on the inside of my ears. It felt similar to getting a bad head cold and getting your ears plugged, minus the temporary hearing loss that usually accompanies a viral (cold) ear infection. I remember lightly snapping my fingers each morning to see if I was loosing my hearing. This went on for a week before I woke up one morning with the tinnitus.
Is it because cocaine and marijuana are ototoxic?
I'm 22 male, active and have real high Bp (i guess heriditary) but I'm hoping to get this under control soon with my meds(hydrochloric thiazides, amlodipine) but this started before treatment ... I've had pressure above my nose for over a month now and a weird feeling in the back of my head (spaced out/dizzy kinda feeling) its stronger sometimes then others but is constantly around I recently had a brain/head ct scan and they said all was normal...
I am a 30 year-old healthy female. I currently take Levothyroxine for a thyroid disorder. I am on no other medications. For the last year I have had fullness in both my ears. It is getting to be very uncomfortable and bothersome. The feeling reminds me of when you change elevation and need to clear your ears. I have tried to get them to "pop" but it doesn't work. I am a singer and now when singing my voice even echos in my ears.
I've had such a tough time with sinus headaches, allergies (watery eyes, plugged ears and tinnitus) and fatigue that I finally went to an ear-nost-throat doctor last week. He put me on Nasonex, a steroid nasal spray, to reduce the inflammation. I also hear my heartbeat in my ear at times, and he's hoping that a month on Nasonex will stop that. If not, he'll do a CT scan and other work to see what's going on.
I have also been having vertigo issues for the past nine months or so. Have tried several medications such as Zyrtec D, Flonase, Nasonex, Xyzal....also nasal rinses, and some vitamins and herbs...nothing works for long. Today the doc decided to start testing me for allergies to try to get to the root of the fluid and swelling in my ears. Your results sound interesting. I have in the past from time to time has what I think are fever blisters around the corners of my mouth.

If your cough got better using it, maybe it was helping some allergy symptoms, like post-nasal drip.
Did you ask your doctor what he meant, or try to clarify anything? Always feel free to ask questions and clarify anything you don't understand with your doctor.
A week later I woke up with horrible dizziness that kept me out of work for days. Saw the doc, ears looked fine, prescribed meclizine and and MRI. MRI was fine, after about 3 more days, started feeling better than it came back and has not left since and this time has horrible ear pain and fullness associated with it. I called the doc last week after trying a course of decongestants without luck and she prescribed flonase.
Hello everyone! I should first appologize for the length of this post. I'm really hoping someone can help me. I've been suffering from inflammation of the nose, throat and ears for several months now. It all began in April. I went to my doctor for a routine exam and had him look at my right ear and throat as I had woken up that morning with slight pain. He said I had an ear and throat infection and e-prescribed me an antibiotic.
It got to the point in December that I had to set up to sleep because I could not breath laying down. Also, my ears started ringing. Cut forward to today, I have been tested for Lyme, disease, parasites, Celiac, H. Pylori, thryoid and adrenla gland problems, and they have all come back negative. Some doctor say they think I have acid reflux and some say that I don't. I have not been on acid reflux medicne since last year and don't know if I should start back on it.
