Re: eustachian tube blocked (Sinus Infection)

The ear needs to dry up in the space between the source of the goop and the inside opening of the eustachian channel. Go to an ENT doctor and get him to aspirate the ear. He'll put a small incision in the eardrum and use a little vacuum cleaner tube to pull out the goop. Have him send a sample of this to a lab for analysis. He'll put a small tube in the little slit in the ear drum - it'll fall out in a few weeks and the slit will heal over - these weeks will allow for your ear to dry up - what your e-tube would have done for you before it plugged up. this will give you a chance to move forward. Note the positions of your head when you hear gurgles and feel the tickle of the drainage. This can tell you it's not in your ears but in the sinuses of your skull. Take Capril capsules and note any changes. These have a quick effect on symptoms. I think you're on the right site. Tweet
