Hello, It is likely a eustachian tube dysfunction. Would recommend a consultation with an ENT Specialist for a detailed ear exam and a pressure test for the eustachian tube.
Get allergy testing and treated. Allergy affects eustachian tube function, a tube between ear and nose

It sounds like the Eustachian tube on one or both sides is getting stuck closed and causing negative pressure in the middle ear. If it persists, I'd go see a general practitioner and/or ENT physician. 
I recommend scheduling an appointment with an audiologist or ENT physician for evaluation. A tympanogram is a test that can evaluate if there is persistent fluid behind the eardrum.
