Can Anxiety Cause Ear Pressure?
Posted: 02-19-07 12:47pm

Lately, I've noticed that whenever I'm anxious - my ears get pressure and I get the 'airplane' ear. However, when I'm relaxed, no stress, and not anxious, then I don't think I have ever observed my ears plugging up.

Anyone ever experience such a thing?

I sometimes have the same feelings, went to a doctor who checked my ears, said it's fine.

I went to a doctor and he said I have Eustachian tube dysfunction.

I was looking around and found a connection between anxiety and ETD.

I don't have a solution yet but hopefully I will figure it out soon.

Yea, I have heard of this and know of someone who experiences it when anxious. It can also constribute to dizziness.
