There"s Fullness in BOTH Ears! Help!
You need answers.
Your ears are giving you problems and you don't know what to do about it.
Where do you begin? We will look at some possible causes here.
You may read a few things you didn't even think about.
Hopefully, we'll get you headed in the right direction.
Where there's a problem, there's always a way to fix it! Possibility #1 Eardrums rupture.
I know, this definitely doesn't sound good, but it's pretty common! It happens.
When it does, it can create a feeling of fullness.
See a doctor if you have lots of pain along with the fullness in your ears.
It may also feel like it's very sensitive and you don't want anyone to get near your ear.
Possibility #2 Stress is a cause.
If you find yourself clenching your teeth, it will affect how your teeth feel.
It may also give you headaches.
Try a night-guard for sleeping if you don't know you are clenching at night.
If you wake up in the morning and you feel like your mouth is glued closed, this may be your problem.
Often times, it's hard to even open your mouth in the morning when you've spent a very stress-filled night clenching your teeth.
Possibility #3 It's sinus related.
If you have a sinus infection or a cold, you will feel a congested feeling or "fullness" in your ears.
Using a decongestant may help.
Take the time your body needs to rest and heal itself.
I understand it's hard to do that sometimes but if you don't, you'll end up dragging the cold or infection out longer and make things worse on yourself.
Possibility #4 It's allergy related.
If you notice symptoms during certain times of the year, such as when hay fever is prevalent, this may be the culprit.
Try to make note of these times of the year- the ones that give you the ear problems- and discuss them with your doctor.
There are different medications that can help.
Here we've gone over 4 different possibilities for your ears feeling full.
As you can see, the causes can be anything from stress-related to a symptom of a common cold.
If you are tired of looking at possible causes and would rather spend time making the symptom go away (along with other ear problems), I understand.
You'd be surprised how many people suffer with this same problem and just give up without trying to find a way to help themselves.
