In Western Anatomy, the ear canal is connected to the sinuses. Any obstruction of the ear will affect the breathing/eyes immediately.

Also, the ear drum is the center of equilibrium in the body. If it is working properly, a person's balance will be normal. If there is an infection or fluid in the ear canal, that can greatly change their equilibrium.

From a Traditional Chinese Medical standpoint, the ears are the extremities of the Kidneys. They affect the overall energy of the body, and can be used as a diagnostic tool.

Also, ear acupuncture is very common in weight loss and smoking cessation therapy. Being very close to the brain, ear therapy is amazing!

Hope this is helpful to you.
