About 6 weeks ago I flew while sick and my ears wouldnt pop after. For the first 3 weeks after they were slightly popping then immediately filling with pressure 24/7 non stop everytime i moved my mouth or swallowed.

Now 6 weeks out my right ear feels normal and my left one still feels full of pressure and it wont go away. The ENT tells me its ETD. The hearing test they did showed my left ear drum is stiffer than the right. Exercises and sprays arent helping. So nothing I can do but wait it out I guess?

And no im not an asshole. I wore an N95 mask on my first flight, got sick at a wedding, then flew home with an N95. I even flew with those Earplanes earplugs people suggest and it did nothing to help!
