II have a cold and my left ear since a few hours ago keeps popping when i swallow or move my jaw. I have flonase. I used it. Im only one day in of  if this cold. I have had colds before this but this is maddening. Its the eustatian  tube but its giving me anxiety big time, its annoying. I have tinnitus every since 2007.  I cant use steroids, except the eye doc said ok for the flonase only. I cant use decongestants either. They are watching my inner angles of my eye and i have ootic nerve pallow in the right eye. The optic nerve pallor was from some virus years ago.and you have to be very careful what medicine you use. This needs to stop. Its going to drive me mad. Please anyone respond and tell me this will go away very soon. I know i have a week to go on the cold. Wow this has just never happened before.not more then a few minutes anyway.

      Yes, it will. I've had it for a little over three weeks and it is getting much better.

      Np. It's different for everybody. You just gotta be patient and have faith and take care of yourself.
