Ok, so just found this website, and registered about 2 min ago, so this is my first post.
Note: I am having the problem below, right now... Hopefully it will go away after i'm done typing.
My left ear will completely out of no where feel like it's plugged or is underwater, just randomly. I'll be sitting in class and boom there it goes, or at home right now on the computer or whenever you name it. It is really annoying because it's confusing having one ear plugged and the other working. This happens at random time periods from every other day to once a week to even once every few months for about a few hours when it does happen then it stops.
I went to the doctor 2 times getting them to look at it, they say my left ear and my right one too, are both clean, no wax... And they say everything looks healthy. I explain everything to them and one doctor said to chew gum because of some air or something in my left ear? Well I have been and it doesn't help or work went through a million packs. Plus this is happening to often for it to be a problem like that.
There was once incident a few years back, where I had this extreme pain in my left ear one night which just started before I was going to bed. I could barely sleep and went to the medical clinic next morning right when it opened. Doctor checked it out and used the ear cleaning thing where he used water pressure to clean out any wax. Nothing came out except this big rock thing. Yes, that's what it looked like, a rock, it was rock hard, but the doctor said it was wax hardened... I was like wow. Never expected that because I like to keep my ears cleaned.
Anyways after that day, the ear problem I just explained started happening. After that ball of wax came out of my ear it did felt different, like the passway felt more open. Another thing is when I turn my head sideways to the left 90 degrees it stops *when I have the ear problem*, but right when I turn my head up straight it starts again.
I also get pissed off when this happens because it is so annoying. I literally bunch the left side of my face because I want to to stop... That's how annoying this is. I'm serious I will take shots at my self as hard as I can... God what have I come to...
Note: it is going away now, still chewing gum... Who knows when it will be happening /sigh /cry
edit: the left area under my chin, under the left jaw has some pain when I apply some pressure to it... Omg!
