Very Random Question

am 5 weeks pregnant and am currently getting over a sinus infection and ear infection. I am on antibiotics but I have very blocked ears and they ring on both sides. Any ideas on what to do? I have used sinus rinses but they aren't clearing them up!

Sorry no advice

I'm not sure if they ok during pregnancy but I don't see why not, have you tried ear drops? They do a few at the chemist, if that fails can you go to your doctors and have them syringed? I've had the problem of blocked ears before and it's awful!

Does this really work? My DD complains of this issue constantly and I've tried just about everything. Drives her mad.

Yes it does when I was 5 weeks both of my ears were blocked I tried everything and using warm olive oil really did help just put a few drops in and then put some cotton wool in to stop it running out should unblock within a few days you can also use a bulb syringe to flush out with warm water once it loosens you can get them from amazon
