Does anyone know a reliable way to clear fluid that is trapped in the middle ear.
I suffer from ear infections and everytime I go to the doctors (because I get vertigo a lot) they always say "oh you have fluid in your ears, do some steam inhalation and it will clear".
The thing is it does subside for a few weeks but then it comes back I'm not sure if it's due to allergies that I have or because I had a really bad infection a few years ago and both my eardrums perforated. Ever since then I seem to have problems with getting fluid trapped.
Does anyone know much about this, I'm just getting fed up of the doctors saying the same thing over and over and I feel like I need to look at getting a more permanent solution.
Just wondered if there were any other sufferers out there and if so have you found anything that works.
thanks
