How do you get your ear to pop?

My left ear is blocked.  If I hold my nose and blow, it won't pop. :(  HELP. :(

Re: How do you get your ear to pop?

  • When it's blocked and what you've tried doesn't work, I try holding my nose (with my mouth shut) and sucking in first, and then blowing out. Sometimes it helps.

    You can also try blowing out completely, holding your nose and then swallowing... 

    Chewing gum... opening and closing your mouth really wide... swallowing...

  • Debrox (the stuff you use for swimmer's ear; it's OTC) has worked for me in the past.
