Allergies can cause swelling of the sinuses and fluid buildup in the sinuses. You can treat it with an over-the-counter decongestant. You may have to ask for one at the check out of a store, because they are usually kept behind the counter now. And you can also see an allergist, a doctor who specializes in treating allergies, if necessary. Another thing that helps is moist heat. You can use a humidifier, or put a warm wet washcloth over your nose and mouth for a few minutes and breathe in.

Why is there fluid and crusts in ear?

Fluid in the inner ear can be caused by allergies and sinus problems that cause the eustachian tube to swell and close and retain fluid. It can reduce hearing and cause pain too. Swelling in the nasal, head and ear sinuses is common. If swelling occurs in the ear sinuses or Eustachian tube, mucus or even pus can become trapped there, causing a feeling of swollen, clogged ears, plugged, sore, congested ears, poor hearing, or even a feeling of water sloshing deep in the head. This solution can be done at home and relieves Eustachian tube swelling so that the mucus can drain naturally. Crust in the ear is usually the outer ear, caused by ear wax, and that is the bodies natural way of cleaning the ear canal of foreign particles.

I have a lot of pressure in my head and my ears and throat are killing me what could be the cause?

Well all the symptoms that you have described seem to point typical sinus problems and even a sinus infection.Pressure in the head can be due to congested sinuses. When your sinuses become congested they build up pressure in the head and this in turn also results in your body draining mucus down the back of the throat (this condition is known as post nasal drip). When your mucus is infected and it is drained down the back of the throat it ussually leads to a sore throat/ throat infection. The pain in the ears is also as a result of the congestion, because your ears are connected to your sinuses throuth the eustachian tube. When the sinuses become congested we ofte nfind that our ears feel blocked. When there is a sinus infection we may even get earaches.
