Common Questions and Answers about Flonase for ear pressure

Avatar m tn The increasing pressure in the ears - sometimes it feels like it unclogs for awhile then builds back up - I even get pressure and tingling in the nose and sinus area for over a month. I get the same advice about it being an Eustachian tube dysfunction and try to be patient as it will likely resolve itself. Meanwhile we're suffering needlessly. I've been to the ENT twice - all he gave me was a steroid dose pack and Flonase nasal spray - neither of which has worked.
Avatar n tn About a week ago the allergies and sinuses really got a hold of me and i had horrible sinus pressure, felt really spacey, had ear fullness and pain, felt a little off but no ear infection. I got put on a antibiotic. I then just started the Flonase back up. One day i felt short of breath off and on. I also took a Zyrtec. I almost went to the hospital because i felt bad and felt like my allergies/ sinuses were causing it. I also have anxiety.
Avatar f tn 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 used to get some wax out, however, after this started, I can't get any wax out.
Avatar n tn 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?? In addition, is there any other over-the-counter meds that may be of use. Thank you.
Avatar f tn symptoms, along with some jaw soreness and soreness to pressure/touch inside the ear canal (outer canal only...not going into the ear canal) I am thinking that I only need to give it a few more days for everything to clear up, but am looking for any other advice or things I should be watching for? Thank you. Also, if the nasonex has been working, should I expect flonase to be as effective (it is quite a bit less expensive in generic.
Avatar m tn I have been suffering from ear pressure/headaches/nasea since flying while having a head cold for the last 3months. Been to plenty of docs and ENT's who diagnosis is a dysfunctional eustacheun tubes and have prescrbed antibiotics, decongestives, Flonase steriod nose spray, and decongestive pills without any help. Anyone out there have a similar experience and possibly a cure?
Avatar f tn If I lightly strike the front of my ear, pull on left ear, gently touch back of left ear, or press on it in any way I hear that crumbling noise for a few seconds then it goes away. It's worse at night when I'm laying down. My doctor said my left ear drum was not moving when he uses the air with the otoscope, I have been prescribed antibiotics , prednisone, flonase, decongents, all failed.
Avatar m tn Flonase is for allergies so it should help but if it continues I would go get tested for allergies. It only takes a few hours and most of the time you'll know what you are allergic to right then and there. If its your cat then, they'll give you whatever medication to help and try to keep your cat away from where you sleep in the meantime. I have a dog and I know that's hard but that is supposed to be helpful. Good luck!
Avatar m tn 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...
Avatar n tn I've had ear pressure, not really pain going on about 7 months now. Back when it started, I went to an urgent care center (I was looking for a new primary care doctor at the time) and the doctor there told me it was Eustacian Tube Dysfunction. He told me to take Claritin D and he prescribed Flonase. I started taking/using both, and the pressure eased up a little bit, but it was still there. At that time, I was also experiencing some sinus pressure. That seems to have lessened.
Avatar f tn Ent dr rules out allergies but I am not certain What else could I take for my ear thanks
Avatar f tn Flonase, is that for nasal congestion? I have tried it for chronic night time nasal congestion... it "sort of" works. Has it worked well for you, bump aside? I love Afrin, but it can not be used more than a few days in a row. I have pushed it too far and have suffered some rebound. I understand Flonase/Generic does not risk "rebound".
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar m tn I've had an upper respiratory infection for about a week. Went to the doctor this morning with severe ear pain, no infection, just inflammation due to the other infection. Was recommended Flonase, rest, and fluids. After I came home and took the Flonase I've had this really weird fizzing sensation off and on at the back of my throat all day. It feels like a handful of poprocks are at the top of my throat/back of my mouth. It's a really weird suggestion.
Avatar n tn 38yo male with diagnosed hearing loss on right side. I workout often, no high blood pressure etc. In middle 2017 I had what I now know as a vertigo episode. It put me on the floor it was so bad. I had another one a few months later. This was summertime, so no true infection or anything that showed up. I consistently have ear pressure (fullness) that never seems to go away, it's always faint. I have had tempanogram and hearing tests, which showed hearing loss.
Avatar f tn I was sent to a ear specialist as my right ear hurt so bad - found out it was my sinuses putting pressure on my ear drum - was put on an old rx of drixoral but could literally feel my sinuses shrink - I keep Halls cough drops in my pocket - during the summer I use flonase - but lately have just been using a saline drop - since I was in hospital with pneumonia I have a humidifier - Dr Oz showed the Neti??
Avatar f tn So he gave me some pills for that but i still feel the pressure in my nose and throat! And i read on the pills that its for seasonal allergies!!!So do i have allegies or sinusitus!!I need help cause i have three little ones to take care of but i always feel sick and nervous!!!
Avatar m tn Has anybody had the following symptoms: ear popping when I swallow for over a month now which my ENT says is Eustachian Tube Dysfunction. Recently there is an increased pressure in my ears extending back to under my ears, which I take to be sinus trouble. Could these cause my tinnitus to worsen? I've had mild ringing in my ears for a long time due to noise damage. All these symptoms occurred after a concert. Shouldn't I be able to enjoy some live music?
Avatar f tn 5 weeks ago I had an all day coughing fit and with each cough felt more pressure building up in my right ear. Blowing my nose every 2 minutes of the day, pressure started in the left ear. One week went by, I finally went to the Dr. Diagnosed with a Sinus Infection, he gave me a round of antibiotics, 2 different RX nasal sprays, and hydrocodone cough syrup. While my sinus and chest congestion has subsided, the pressure in my ears have not.
Avatar m tn 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.
867954 tn?1356900863 Inflammation in the nose, throat and sinuses can cause inflammation around the Eustachian tube, which is the tube that runs from the back of the nose to the middle ear and is responsible for draining the middle ear of fluid. If there is Eustachian tube dysfunction from nose or sinus inflammation, fluid can remain in the middle ear which can lead to fullness in the ears and consequent tinnitus. So, don't worry and discuss these options with your doctor.
345124 tn?1234483278 ve been on Claritin and flonase and still feel dizzy with pressure only in my left ear. I get dizzy then anxious . I even went on prize c to help but I went off after 3 days bc of the mood swings. So glad to hear I'm not crazy and others feel the exact same way as me. I got back to ent next Thursday for revaluation bc I think spring allergies are kicking in line crazy now. Everytime I get anxious my ear feels fuller. Making me crazy!!
Avatar m tn The ear feels blocked for awhile after two or three repetitions... and left ear tends to feel more closed or full - but hopefully it's fully opening up again during the course of the day. I hate to not be able to do this technique, because so far it's the only thing i've found that is said to deliver the saline into the sphenoid sinus area -- to hopefully start breaking down material there -- vs. the standing method of nasal rinse with the Neil Med bottle.
Avatar n tn Hi, Jerry... the nasal spray you're using (fluticasone propionate) is the generic form of Flonase. My ear doctor gave me a prescription to try when my Nasonex runs out (which should be soon). It seems that since I've been on the Nasonex, (beginning of spring allergies here), my heart pounding is worse. I researched fluticasone and found that it can also increase heart pounding or palpitations in some people. So I'm not sure what to do at this point.
Avatar m tn First the doctor came, looked inside my ear with an otoscope, then a medical assistant came and put ear drops in my right ear for 15 minutes, to let the wax dissolve. Then the medical assistant brought the water syringe to flush out my right ear. The initial round of flushing, first few times, I felt like my ear was getting unblocked and opening up, but in subsequent times/flushes I felt like it was actually getting a little blocked again.
Avatar n tn Hi I have been dealing with sinus pressure/fluid for the past 3 years. I've been diagnosed with bipolar type 2, and every time I swing into a manic/depressive side I feel like there's a "lever" that snaps and releases fluid into the sinuses that is not supposed to be there. Normally I have to deal with the mania/mood swing for several months to years, then the "lever" magically switches back and releases all the fluid immediately.
Avatar f tn I do have eustachian tube dysfunction and some problems with my sinus that I am taking Flonase for. Should I be seeing a neurologist? My primary doctor does not think so and feels it may be a manifestation of anxiety. I also notice it more a week or so prior to my menstrual cycle. It is really starting to scare me. Thank you.
