You could try checking if your ear is blocked first. Use soft cotton buds to rove your inner ear. If it meets obstruction of some sort, it is blocked. You may use olive oil to soften the block. Continue this and the block maybe eventually removed. This is harmless. But it is better to see an ear doctor.
