I have the same issues with my ears. Right now the left one is yet again infected. Either they are dry and itchy, or they are oozing. I also have pretty severe tinnitus.
Pulling definitely helps the ears. In fact, my ear pressure went away yesterday after I did it twice. I did it once with Walnut Oil and one with Hemp Oil (which is not an oil for beginners). To these I added some drops of Oil of Oregano and Tea Tree Oil. My ear felt much better, and then I got up this morning, and there it is again. I'm swishing right now. I can feel them draining, pretty cool.
