Why do you hear a ring in your ear?
This is a condition that many people suffer from... there are also many possible causes of this condition. Ussually the cause of this symptom is damage done to the ear... I myself have suffered with this condition (but only in the left ear) since I was 22. The cause of my ringing in the ears (tinnitus) was due to a blow to the head just next to my ear. This caused damage to my ear drum. Other possible means of damaging your ear is by being exposed to an extremely loud noise (such as a gunshot) or even continuous exposure to loud noise (such as listening to music excessively loud on a continuous basis). Another possible cause of tinnitus is sinus congestion. When the sinuses become congested they create pressure. This congestion and pressure affects the ears as they are connected via the eustaschian tube. So if you have sinus congestion this is another possible cause of tinnitus. I've been using sinuswars16 and it has helped me reduce the noise level in my ear but there are other medications available- such as t-gone. SinusWars does also offer remedies to help treat congestion which can alleviate the ringing sound if it is caused by congestion.

The heat makes the mucous more liquidy, loosening the pressure that causes congestion. The same applies to ear wax build up.
Why are ear infections common when a person has a sinus infection or head cold or flu?
Ear infections are common after having the above conditions for a while due to pressure and congestion that builds up. Mucus and congestion build up affect the upper respiratory system and our sinuses are basically canals for everything to flow through. If these canals get stopped up, the ears, esp the inner ear and middle ear, are affected by this pressure and congestion, and the inner parts of our ears become inflammed. This results in redness (which a doctor can see with his otoscope), pressure, ultimately, pain.

Does nasal congestion and ear congestion cause ringing in the ears?
A head cold can sometimes be associated with ear ringing because it can cause Eustachian tube dysfunction, which usually has ringing as a side effect. However, if it persists past a cold, a doctor should check it since it could be tinnitus or something else serious.

What is the Best thing for chest congestion?
If you are congested, a type of medicine called an expectorant will help loosen the congestion so you can more easily cough it up. Many cough medicine preparations contain expectorant medication. One of the expectorant ingredients that works best for my family is called Guaifenesin. Read the label on the cough medicines and pick one with that as the active ingredient. There are also longer acting tablets with guaifenesin as the active ingredient available also over the counter called Mucinex. Both of these types of medicine have been recommended by many health care professionals during the pandemic.

What are the benefits of using an expectorant?
The main benefit of using an expectorant when sick is that this medication causes the body to increase its mucous secretions in order to help rid itself of illness harbored in thicker secretions that are difficult to expel. By taking an expectorant, someone who is sick will have an increased ability to cough up any mucous in their throat or sinuses which would otherwise hamper the progression of healing.
