If you have any other info about this I would love to know. I have a similar problem. No sickness, illness, etc. I feel fine, however my ear just feels stuffy. It isn't terrible, but I always feel like I should "pop" it to clear it as if changing elevation. Sometimes it goes away, sometimes it just lingers, I feel like it could be allergy related, however I don't have any other allergy symptoms, and no real stuffiness in my nose. But I have the wet feeling, sort of warm full feeling, and stuffy, and it feels like I could clear it like you could clear phlegm, but it doesn't work usually. During the day it is best, in the mornings it's the worst. When I wake up I feel like my ear is wet, but like the original post said, there is no wetness if I use a qtip. To answer the other poster, I don't have jaw problems, though I do sometimes have a popping in my jaw, slight TMJ I suppose, though I really don't want to go to a dentist or doctor to get surgery recommended. It's weird, sometimes it feels fine, sometimes it's irritating, I think it might be a little bit allergy related and a little bit jaw related. But if there is something I can do to relieve the pressure or keep my ear draining properly without meds and without surgery, I'd love to hear about it. Also, fyi, I haven't even had a cold or sickness in close to a year so I doubt that's it, and also I eat a very healthy diet, stay away from processed and sugary foods, and I get plenty of raw organic fruits and veggies.
