so i had a really bad stuffy nose a few days ago, then i went and got some musinex d and started using it. It worked to clear up my stuffy nose and now i can actually breath through my nose. but now when i blow my nose my ears pop and its really loud. then sometimes my hearing gets muffled and i just have to wait for them to unpop on their own because i cant swallow to unpop them or anything...i stopped taking the mucinex d yesterday thinking that was the reason my ears were doing that but so far its still doing it..i need help because it hurts my head when i blow my nose.

It's normal for your ears to pop. What Mucinex does is loosen up the mucus so it can break up and "unclog". When it starts to break up, you'll get some popping, but that generally means that the stuffiness is about to disappear. Keep taking it and keep blowing. Get that stuff out of your head before bacteria sets in and you get an infection.
