Otovent Adult Autoinflation Device - Clinically Effective Treatment for Glue Ear. Eustachian Tube Unblocker and Ear Pressure Relief.

Seems to be working and helping to restore my hearing. This device was advised by the ENT department for an ongoing condition. Maybe seek advice before you use it.

Works great Sorted my ear problemout withing 2 weeks

UPDATE: The balloon burst with bang on the 4th day of use, some are supplied, but refills are a silly price for basic latex balloons. It seems to be useful just awkward to get a seal. Takes some poressue on the nose to get a seal on a mans nose. I waited 7 months to get an ENT appointment to be told to buy this, will let my GP know a simple solution exists. Basically it is a plastic ball with a balloon attached and you blow it up with your nose. Recommended by the ENT consutant at the NHS. They don’t prescribe them.

Although the insert is the size, or a tiny bit larger than my nostrils, I tried putting it further up my nose, midway, further out just so it's at the entry to the nostil. I tried angling it downwards, straight ahead, midway, and every single other angle. I tried different finger placements, such as one finger at the bottom, one on top of the insert, and two at the top, all fingers on the insert and at the top, and every other position I could put them in. Nothing worked consistently. I can barely ever stop all airflow out. There's no different sizes of the insert, it's just one size; About 2cm. It's also hollow, so I'm unsure how you're supposed to clean the middle of the bulb, because it's quite a bit bigger than the tunnel section. If it was filled on the inside sides for the hole to be the same size tunnel then you would be able to use a straw-cleaning brush / a pipe-cleaner to clean it well between uses. And when I do manage to create a proper seal it takes way too much force for me to be able to blow up the balloon to the size that the instruction tells you to. I was only ever able to blow the balloon up to a centimetre larger than the original size of the balloon at its flacid state, so barely any size change. However, it is effective if you follow the instructions. What I do is use it for a few seconds per nose after I could feel behind my eardrums being filled with air I hold it, move to the next nostril, and then take small tips of water. Over the next few minutes the ears drain and it is easier to breathe through both nostrils. Immediately after using Otovent all of the iriitation inside my ear cannal visibly goes away. On my first use, prior to it my ear canals were very red, and when I used the tiny camera again to look inside them the irritation was reduced by about 90%. They pretty much looked normal. Ofcourse, from the first use there wasn't much of any change in my eardrums, but that is why you need to use this tool regularly and for a long time. This will tide me over until I am able to afford to try an electric tool, and until I am accepted to be a patient for the ENT clinic I was referred to by my GP. But this is a decent place to start. Overall, unless your nostrils are very tall or wide.

This product worked wonders for me and I would 100% recommend. I caught a flight home whilst I was slightly congested and my ears became fully blocked. I had suffered with blocked ears for a week and visited the Doctor Who prescribed me antibiotics however these did not help and I was becoming very restless and anxious in trying to find a way to rectify this I was upset and frustrated as I couldn’t hear a thing and thought this was something I would have to live with. I bought this product as I had nothing else to lose. I was sure it wouldn’t work. However after the first go my ears popped and I was able to hear again I was so relieved anyone who is suffering from middle ear or fluid past the eardrum I would definitely recommend this product. My ears aren’t 100% but they’ve gone from 15% to now 85%. The package tells you to use this product for three weeks which I will continue to do so and will bring it with me when I go on any future travels. Highly recommend.

After a month or so of trying decongestant and various maneuvers (valsalva and others) I was about to get a doctors appointment to solve my blocked ears. This worked. It took me about 5 days of using it several times a day before I felt completely better, but I got there. The first time it worked but the blockage came back quickly. After several days it was a little better then by 5 or so, all gone! The relief is so good!!

This is so simple that indeed a child can use it and the surprising thing is that it works allowing the Eustachian Tube gently to unblock.

Does the exact same as popping your ears the good old fashioned way that's free I bought for a middle ear infection which then my middle ear needed popping, used product as required but it did nothing more than If I was roblow through my nose. Waste of money

Súper bueno el ejercicio para el oido

My husband uses this to help keep his ears clear. He has tube in his ears snd sometimes they clog up. He says blowing into this helps.

Sacré utilité pour ceux qui ont des problèmes d’oreilles comme moi.. Très utile lors d’un rhume, après un vol d’avion, une baignade, ça permet de déboucher les oreilles !

Meine Freundin hatte lange mit Problemen an den Ohren zu kämpfen, dieser Ballone helfen ihr sehr.

This is an excellent product for the treatment of glue ear, no medication needed. Also, the delivery of it was excellent.
