Please help

When I was working out this morning, my ears became pretty clogged. I was sweating a lot so I figured maybe the sweat got into my ears and caused it. After I was finished, I tried to clean my ears out but they remained clogged. It felt like I could only hear myself breathing. This has never happened before and they are still clogged. Ive tried to clean them and to get them to pop but nothing is helping. Any ideas on why its happening or what to do?

    Were you dehydrated? I have to sip water while I cycle. If I don't, by the time I'm done, I'll feel like my ears are filled with cotton and can only hear my heart hammering.

    If it doesn't resolve itself in a couple hours, I'd see a doc.

    Try taking a decongestant. Sometimes mucus gets smushed in there and needs to be cleared out.

    Seeing a doctor can never hurt, though.
