You may experience blockage that causes loss of hearing or even infection. However, there are times when it doesn’t and this can lead to fluid building up in the middle ear. When you have congestion or fluids in your ear, it should close. The Eustachian tube, which is located in the inner ear, helps to equalise air pressure behind your eardrum. When you are sick from a cold or the flu, congestion can build up in the middle ear as well. However, if the build-up is chronic, then there could be another underlying problem and would likely need to visit an ear, nose and throat specialist. If you have wax build-up only occasionally, it can be treated with drops made to soften the wax and to rid the debris. In this case, pressure on the eardrum can cause pain and you may have trouble hearing. However, an excessive build-up of the wax can actually cause a blockage. It is normal to have a certain amount of wax since it protects the eardrum from foreign matter.
The glands that create wax are located in the outer ear. There are many different things that can cause the blockage which need to be addressed in different manners. When the middle ear is blocked, is can cause pain and severe discomfort. The middle ear is located just behind the eardrum and is the canal that connects the outer part of your ear to the small organs located in the inner ear.
