Ear clog?

Question

I'm 5 weeks. For the past 1-2 days my left ear has been clogged, uncomfortable with obstructed hearing. I tried ear wax kit twice and it didn't help. I don't have a doctor appointment until week 8. I'm not sure if I should go to a walk-in. I'm nervous if it's infected and I need antibiotics? I don't ever get ear infections... Has this happened to anyone?

Answer

I started going through this in my second trimester no matter how many times I drain it it clogged right back up. I guess some go through this during pregnancy its super annoying and nasty

Answer

This happened to me. You can put warm water and peroxide in your ear and let it drain, in hours to to a few days lots of nasty wax will come out and you will feel better.

Answer

Do you have allergies? For 3 weeks during my third trimester, my left ear lost all hearing. I had really bad allergies that turned into a sinus infection, but I didn't realize it until it got really bad (it's my first year in a super dense pollen area). After finishing my antibiotics and routinely using nasal allergy meds, my ear gradually gained hearing back. It's almost been a month and it's still kind of sensitive when it comes to sound and pressure.
