Nasonex eustachian tube
Common Questions and Answers about Nasonex eustachian tube
nasonex
I have experienced ear/eustachian tube pain in both ears (although one is much worse) since a dentist appointment to repair a broken tooth 2 months ago. Doctors have suggested, and I have tried, decongestants, Garasone, Nasonex, Neti pot, Advil Cold and Sinus. Nothing is working. The glands in my neck are sore and swollen. There does not seem to be much, if any, good news to be found on the resolution of this condition. Any suggestions??
Nasal saline irrigations over the counter like NeilMed or Neti pot are very effective, but worsen Eustachian tube dysfunction (water in the ears or feeling of fullness in the ears). The best diagnosis for this problem is a CT of the sinuses. Surgery is recommended to patients that fail maximal medical treatment.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
If it is then it could be due to sinusitis. Sometimes an Eustachian tube (tube connecting ear to throat) block can cause these pressure symptoms. Try valsalva maneuver (take a deep breath and blow while pinching your nostrils shut and closing your mouth).
Hope these tips help. If symptoms persist consult an ENT specialist. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
yes i did about 3 years ago and had an mri.
This sounds like it could be Eustachian Tube Dysfunction, but you should see an ENT specialist for a full diagnosis.
Hope this helps. Good luck!

t have any hearing loss or anything. ITs just Eustachian Tube Dysfunction he says its the after math from my infection 2 months ago. He said its not unusual at all that's it's still gong on. He's telling me its gong to go away completely in time the tube just needs to heal again. He didn't tell me to take anything else, my question do you think I can take Sudafed for a couple of days? Maybe it could speed up the recovery?
Can one experience "late-phase" allergy symptoms like malaise, fatigue, headaches, Eustachian tube dysfunction etc. without EVER experiencing "early-phase" symptoms like runny nose, itchy eyes etc. ? I do occasionally have a scratchy throat, but this is very seldom.
I have been experiencing these "late-phase" symptoms for several months now, and was recently diagnosed (via skin ***** test) with allergic rhinitis to dust mites and pollen.
The reason for this is, following an attack of cold there is blockage of the Eustachian tube (the tube which connects the nose and the ear), this happens because of the swelling around the opening of the tube at the nasal end of the tube following the infection. So there is negative pressure created inside the middle ear leading to accumulation of fluid inside as the secretion can not drain into the nasal cavity because of the blockage of the tube.
The Eustachian tube is a tube that links the nasopharynx to the middle ear. The Eustachian tube also drains mucus from the middle ear. So if it becomes swollen shut or clogged, the symptoms you described will occur.
For those that experience chronic daily problems with Eustachian tube dysfunction, benefit by aggressive control of allergies (with antihistamines, decongestants, and prescription nasal sprays). Allergy evaluation can be helpful.
Hi Alisa,
You should have a full exam by an ENT specialist to include hearing testing and acoustic reflexes. This could be Eustachian tube dysfunction, but could also represent early otosclerosis or other disorders.
Hope this helps. Good luck!
Hi,
You seem to be having secretory otitis media, this can be secondary to sinusitis as well. There is a tube connecting nose and the ear called eustachian tube. When ever there is inflammation around this tube during an attack of cold and sinusitis the opening of this tube gets blocked as a result there will be collection of fluid inside the middle ear.
This also caused slightly blurred vision and an aversion to bright light. I was diagnosed with Eustachian Tube Dysfunction but unsure if this is the correct diagnosis. It has flared up again and I feel so weak and tired. Neck muscles feel tight and into my arms. Having difficulty sleeping too. Has anyone had similar symptoms and got a diagnosis or suggest anything that will help?
I have this weird ear pain that goes away when I open my mouth, has anyone experienced this? I have been told it my be Eustachian Tube Dysfunction. Any thoughts on how to permanently stop the pain? I can't walk around with my mouth open, obviously.
I've had chronic ear infections in my right ear starting at 15 years old, I'm 30 now. The doctors say it's Eustachian tube dysfunction, and since 2009 I've had three tubes put in my right ear, the first two fell out but so far the third one's held on. That has decreased the infections somewhat, but I still get them. I asked my ENT if there was any way to prevent this and he laughed and said "Go back in time!
I was adviced to do the so called Eustachian Tube excercises, as chewing gum, or drink with a straw, blow with my nose pinched, etc, but it does nothing but make me feel worse, some times I feel pain, and many times I feel even more preassure in my ears after doing the excercises, but rarely I feel my hearing improves if at all, My main concern is damaging my ears with this autoinflation excercises, besides several times I went to the doctor after doing this ET excercises and doctor told me my

Went to the ER where they diagnosed Eustachian Tube Dysfunction and was given antihistimines, which only make me groggy.
A Eustachian tube to connects the throat to each middle ear, allowing air pressure to equalize around the sensitive timpanic membrane (eardrum). Eardrums and Eustachian tubes are common to some reptiles, birds, mammals.
My best guess is that you are experiencing Eustachian tube dysfunction due infection, allergy, or other problem, which is preventing equalization pressure on the eardrum.
This can cause sharp pains in the head -- level 10 pain -- that no pain reliever can eliminate.
Typically an inner ear issue is dealt with by an Ear Nose and Throat doctor. This can be caused by Eustachian tube dysfunction. Speak to your doctor about this. Things that often help Eustachian tube dysfunction include taking an antihistamine (generally associated with allergy medication and can often be bought over the counter), nsaids such as ibuprofen and benedryl. Chewing gum, swallowing or yawning may help as well. https://www.healthline.
It feels like fluid/blockage in the eustachian tube, but I am not 100% sure. My consultant couldnt confirm this last time I saw her in mid August.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Is there anything anyone can recommend to help with this before I go back to see my Consultant in December?
However, with the history that you describe, it appears to me that there could be accumulation of fluid in the middle ear due to blockage of the tube connecting the nose and the ear (Eustachian tube). The accumulation of fluid in the middle ear can lead to reduced hearing, blockage of the ear and also tinnitus.
I personally had those symptoms due to inner ear issues with my Eustachian tube. My tube was closing in on itself. I did reverse ear pops which helped. Here's some info on that. https://www.healthline.
