When you press lightly on your "ear flap" does it make the plugged up feeling worse? I have constant nasal drip (drives me NUTS, esp. when riding) and I'm not sure if it's all related but I ended up having too much wax buildup and had it flushed out at the doctor's office. Made that issue MUCH better...but the nose still runs like a tap!

I haven't had bad allergies in several years, and they're presenting differently than they used to. This time I have a blocked ear! It's making me nuts! It feels like when you're in an airplane and your ear needs to "pop" but nothing is making that happen! It doesn't hurt, but it's affecting my hearing and annoying the bejezus out of me!

I don't have a question...just complaining.
