It’s called dysfunctional Eustachian tube. I had ear infections and my ear drum burst several times which resulted in scar tissue in the left ear. I bought an ear popper on Amazon and used it when it would flare up. Yes, it does feel stuffy, achy, and I used to get sharp pain. It’s much better now. I’m not sure if the hydroxychloriquine is helping?

There are eat poppers?!! Oh I’m off to order that immediately!! Thank you! My ears are awful! I can’t fly because of them. The pain is unbearable! On top of this weird connective tissue disease I also have chronic migraines, idiopathic intracranial hypertension, fibromyalgia and osteoarthritis to top it off. I’m a hot mess lol. I’m so used to living with pain and extreme fatigue I wouldn’t know what to do with myself 😂

@cherylmcg Can I ask what an ear popper if? Is it just like what it sounds?
