Been to the doctors twice now about my ear. My left ear has got pressure in it, and it's I'm getting a tightness on my left temple and the left cheek feels achy/numb.
Ive tried ear spray for infections and it never worked. Went to doctors and she said there's no infection and it could be my sinuses. So she gave me a nasal spray but my nose isn't blocked? Has she just fobbed me off? :huh:I'm getting a bit worried about it now. It's been weeks

Seems like your doctor is satisfied that your symptoms are not worrysome.
You can always opt for a second opinion, but I'd bet another doctor wil give same answers
Does sound sinus related, and the spray will help beyond just the nose.
If it doesn't help. It may be worth seeing a dentist to see if it's wisdom tooth

Your nose is attached to your sinuses so the medication will help your sinuses

Thanks for your replies. It's definitely not a tooth problem. I'll have to dig out the prescription they gave me now :-)
