4. Seasonal allergies are one of the most common causes of eustachian tube dysfunction.
When allergies occur, it can affect the ears, throat, and nose. When it comes to seasonal allergies, there is nothing a person can do to prevent it because it will occur no matter what. An allergy sufferer can keep his or her nose clear by using a saline nasal spray a few times a week.
The saline nasal spray works so well that it only takes a few times to get relief from eustachian tube dysfunction. The eustachian tubes should open in a few days. Benadryl is another antihistamine that will help with allergies. The only thing about Benadryl is that it can cause drowsiness. It should only be taken if you don’t plan on leaving the house.
Also, taking Ibuprofen is known to help seasonal allergy sufferers. It will help with any pain or inflammation with eustachian tube dysfunction.
