If u find out anything...I wanna know, I have been having the same problem

Hi,,,everytime I have sinuse congestion I get liquid in my ears.....It makes me dizzy and full feeling in ears. Whenever I have this problem I use a decongestant(nasal spray). I seem to have problem with the tubes...They get clogged therefor the liquid stays behind the ear drum and the decongetant helps.Unplug the nasal passages..Dont use the spray for more then 3 days because you end up having what they call a rebound effect and your nose is block all the time. I use it as dirrected,,then give two days rest but use only a nasal rinse then continue another 3 days with the decongestion if it still clogged.
Hope this helps

Hi there! I get a lot of water in my ears from showeing and swimming, I use white vinegaraandd rubbing alchohol, mix it up and use a syringe and put it in my ear, it seems to help, that is about what is in the swimmers ear stuff you buy at the store as your ear is dark inside and they do not drain correctly causing infections and problems.

I think he's speaking of fluid in the Middle Ear, not the External part of the ear.

I'm having a very similar issue.
Started with difficulty breathing through the nose at night, which developed into a lot of fluid and phlegm coming out, the post nasal drip caused a full blown sore throat, with flu symptoms, fever, muscle aches, insomnia, developing in a matter of days.

In the end, once most of it subsided, I was left with sinusitis, which also left my ears filled with fluids.

I've tried decongestants and expectorants without success (never had coughs anyways... but doctors recommended), Sudafed, Advil Cold& Sinus, Mucinex... and am currently on antibiotics (Doxycycline) to see if it's bacterial in nature.

I'm also getting minor dizziness, lack of concentration, minor hearing loss and fatigue. Most of it due to the fluid in the ears, very likely.

The Saline Nasal spray did not work for me, it seems to have mixed rates of success with people and sinus infections. I've been reading some horror stories of sinusitis and clogged ears that have lasted for over a year... so I'm hoping this clears up soon, as it's hard to lead a normal life with it.

I've seen two physicians... and the attitude in general is that I should just keep taking whatever they recommend, pray and wait till it goes away. I was hoping for something a bit more based on facts and less on faith, but this seems to be a hard issue to tackle for the medical field. Either that, or it's so minor as to not be worth their notice.

I too get buildup behind the eardrum of my right ear, with associated 60 percent hearing loss, and vertigo/ nausea. I found that chronic sleep deprivation aggravates the vertigo, as well. So, what I did was a sleep evaluation that recommended CPAP use to rid me of sleep apnea which prevented deep sleep.Then I decided to take loratadine hcl (antihistamine) and meclizine before going to bed. In addition, three nights a week I'll do a nasal rinse of a menthol listerine solution in warm water while doing the aggressive valsalva maneuver( open & shut lower jaw agressively to clear eustachian tubes). The disinfectant qualities of the solution tends to soften up the clogs and allow more discharge than usual.
Please consult with a doctor before trying any of the above techniques. All I know is that severe vertigo episodes are farther and fewer between than they used to be!Thank God!
