Bad luck, Jim.  I think that the Hopi ear candles would be no use as they deal 
with the closed end of the Eustachian tube.  I might be tempted to use Balsam 
Harimau (Tiger Balm) for a while to see if it helps.

It's annoying, though; I hope that it recovers.  I have to be careful with 
steep descents below 2,000ft on some days; I reckon my tubes are getting sticky 
or stiff.
