inner ear infection issues ?
I have a double inner ear infection along with a sinus infection, and I've been on one antibiotic and have started another one, taken a series of methlyprednisolone, and alter between a prescribed decongestant and nyquil/dayquil. I have also had vertigo for the past couple days. My head still feels really full, even though I've been drinking lots of fluids and blowing my nose as much as possible. Also, I can't hear out of my ears (it feels like I have earmuffs on). How can I fix this?
-tired of saying "say that again?"
also, how do i help with the nausea?

You can't - you have to wait for the antibiotics to work and taking the decongestant regularly will also help. The vertigo will go away as the congestion decreases. In addition to what you are doing, you can run a humidifier in the bedroom where you sleep, increase your daily water intake which thins secretions (including those in your sinuses), do not blow your nose hard which forces mucus into your eustachian tubes and gives you that "muffled" sound that you are hearing - gently blow your nose. Nasal saline washes also can help with the sinus problems. All of this needs time.
