You are likely having an allergic reaction to either the wheat, yeast, or sulphur dioxide (found in the wine). People who experience congestion when drinking also commonly get a flushed red face and skin coloring as well, which is also a sign of an allergic reaction to something in the alcohol. Try gin or vodka to see if you get the same effect, it is likely the wheat or yeast in wine and beer causing the reaction.

I have a lot of pressure in my head and my ears and throat are killing me what could be the cause?

Well all the symptoms that you have described seem to point typical sinus problems and even a sinus infection.Pressure in the head can be due to congested sinuses. When your sinuses become congested they build up pressure in the head and this in turn also results in your body draining mucus down the back of the throat (this condition is known as post nasal drip). When your mucus is infected and it is drained down the back of the throat it ussually leads to a sore throat/ throat infection. The pain in the ears is also as a result of the congestion, because your ears are connected to your sinuses throuth the eustachian tube. When the sinuses become congested we ofte nfind that our ears feel blocked. When there is a sinus infection we may even get earaches.


What is wrong if your left ear is clogged and your sinuses hurt?

If your sinuses are sore and you feel like your left ear (or both ears) is blocked, it means that your sinuses are probably congested. When your sinuses become blocked or congested, they create pressure in your head and can even lead to ear infections. This happens because your sinuses are connected to your ears via the eustachian tube. It is important that you treat sinus congestion as it can develop into a sinus infection or ear infection. There are a wide variety of treatments that you can use including: Saline solutions (salt water) Remedies (SinusWars7) Nasal Sprays (Sinol) Personally I prefer the sinuswars remedies (homeopathic). They are natural and didn't have any side effects.
