It is usually NOT a volume of mucus that causes the air flow to be blocked. The typical cause is swelling of the lining of the nasal cavities. If mucus from the middle ear is trapped in the Eustachian tube, it can also harbor an infection.

What is wrong if your left ear is clogged and your sinuses hurt?

If your sinuses are sore and you feel like your left ear (or both ears) is blocked, it means that your sinuses are probably congested. When your sinuses become blocked or congested, they create pressure in your head and can even lead to ear infections. This happens because your sinuses are connected to your ears via the eustachian tube. It is important that you treat sinus congestion as it can develop into a sinus infection or ear infection. There are a wide variety of treatments that you can use including: Saline solutions (salt water) Remedies (SinusWars7) Nasal Sprays (Sinol) Personally I prefer the sinuswars remedies (homeopathic). They are natural and didn't have any side effects.
