When dealing with a blocked ear caused by pressure changes, such as during air travel or altitude shifts, Otrivin Advance Adult Nasal Spray, which contains a nasal decongestant, can sometimes help relieve the sensation by reducing nasal and Eustachian tube congestion. However, it is important to use it cautiously and not for prolonged periods, as overuse can cause rebound congestion.

If there is no pain or wax buildup, the blockage is likely due to Eustachian tube dysfunction related to pressure changes. Using the nasal spray as directed may help open the Eustachian tubes and equalize pressure.

Key points to remember:

• Use Otrivin Advance only as per the instructions on the label or your doctor's advice.
• Avoid prolonged use beyond 3-5 days to prevent rebound effects.
• If symptoms persist, worsen, or if pain develops, consult an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist.

If you have any underlying conditions or are unsure, it is best to seek medical advice before using nasal sprays for ear pressure issues.
