Would be best to see ENT. You can apply warm, moist compresses to the ear, take Zyrtec, (for allergies) and Ibuprofen. If you have nasal congestion, you can use oxymetazoline nasal spray every three to four hours for a few days. Can also use Valsalva maneuver in attempt to get air back into middle ear space
