Persistent cold and blocked ears despite Relent and steam inhalation may indicate congestion, fluid in the ear, or sinus involvement. Continue following your doctor's advice, but consult them again if symptoms persist, worsen, or are accompanied by pain or fever, as you may need additional treatment.

It’s understandable to feel concerned when symptoms like severe cold and ear blockage don’t improve after a few days of treatment. Cetirizine and ambroxol in Relent help reduce allergy symptoms and loosen mucus, but persistent ear blockage and cold symptoms may need further evaluation.

  • Continue your steam inhalation as it helps relieve congestion.
  • Do not stop or change your Relent medication without consulting your doctor.
  • Since your symptoms have lasted 3 days without much relief, it’s important to see an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist to check for possible ear infection or other complications.
  • Watch for warning signs like fever, increasing ear pain, or hearing loss, which require prompt medical attention.

If you want, I can explain more about how these medicines work or what to expect next. Meanwhile, please consult an ENT specialist for a thorough assessment.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.I understand that you have a bad cold and blocked ears, and that Relent and steam aren't helping much. To better understand the situation, could you please share your age and gender?
