Running with plugged ears - help me hear again.

My ears plug up whenever I run. Please help me hear again.

Whenever I go running my ears plug up - sometimes both ears, but more often than not, just the right one. This doesn't happen with any other kind of aerobic activity and they usually unplug about an hour or two after finishing my workout. Why is this happening? How can I stop it?

I can't give you a why, but this used to happen to me if I ran with a cold.

For me bending forward and hanging my head down would unplug them.

Are you running outside and doing aerobics inside? That would lead me to believe that it's an environmental allergy, but if you're on a treadmill I have no clue.

Response by poster: Yup, happens on a treadmill as well.
