Ears are laid down for a cold: why is this happening, and what should I do?

As with the first signs to remove the pain yourself and what doctors can prescribe for treating an ear cold, it is described in this article.

Why lays the ears

Earache can occur suddenly, after bathingor intensive physical exertion, after them the ear sulfur increases in size and overlaps the passage, which does not threaten life, but entails considerable discomfort and even temporary loss of hearing.

Sometimes the pain can occur as a result of excessive accumulation of earwax. It serves to moisten and purify the passage in the ears. In most cases, it is removed naturally. But in some people, in connection with the physical characteristics or the environment in which they work, sulfur accumulates in large amounts and forms stoppers completely covering the ear canal. After they are deleted, everything is restored.

The throat, nose and ears form a single interconnected system. With a cold, the mucous membranes of the nose and ears become prone to various infections and often they form edema that can move into the Eustachian tube that connects the throat and ears. This structure normalizes the pressure on both sides of the tympanic membrane. But at the time of the common cold or after the middle ear, swelling forms, which blocks the lumen, this causes noise and pain in the ears, sometimes it can lead to dizziness.
