i am glad that you are feeling better! earaches can be pretty miserable. an earache often follows a cold or allergy flare-up. here’s what happens. normally the middle ear is kept free of fluid by a tiny tube called the eustachian tube. this tube drains the fluid out of the middle ear into the back of the throat. a cold or allergy can cause this tube to become inflamed and swollen. this traps fluid in the middle ear behind the eardrum. this fluid can then get infected with bacteria or viruses causing pressure and pain. earaches often do get better on their own after a few days. but often some of the fluid is left behind. this fluid can again become a breeding ground for another infection. it can also interfere with your hearing. webmd has a good slideshow that shows exactly what happens with an ear infection. have your doctor take a look to see what is going on. depending on the cause there may be medications or prescription nasal sprays that can help. if this is a persistent problem ask to see an ear nose and throat specialist. rarely a tube may need to be inserted into the eardrum to get rid of the fluid.
