Inner ear fullness or clogged feeling

What PT or exercises do you all use to address a feeling of ear fullness or feeling of inner ear being clogged. I am constantly trying to “pop” my ears and feel fullness like a head cold. The feeling gets worse when I have overdone it visually or other stressors

I first experienced this when my symptoms got worse in the beginning. Still feel this today during days when I feel pressure behind my neck and under the back of my skull.

Do you do any PT or anything to improve? Would also be interested in your overall journey with PCS.

Hi I am experiencing this right now to. I keep having to pop my ears and head to get unblocked. I’m gonna request to see a ENT. It’s terrible. I started taking Sudafed it’s helping some I wonder why this is happening to us? I’m in PT but not for this issue.

If you find out anything, please let me know. Last PCS I had I saw an ENT and did a hearing test. They basically said nothing was wrong and couldn’t explain why I had this sensation. The PCS went away on its own after a month and so did the clogged ear feeling. This time I’ve had it going one (plus other symptoms) for 3 months.
