What should I do if sinus rinse creates pain in the ear?

Sinus rinse is not recommended in the presence of an ear infection or ear symptoms of any kind. If you begin to feel pain after rinsing, stop the rinses. We advise that you consult your physician or wait until symptoms resolve, before starting the rinses again. Please be careful to blow your nose gently after rinsing to avoid putting pressure on your eardrums.
