Ears are still very muffled from sinus infection, when can I expect to hear norm!


Question: Ears are still very muffled from sinus infection, when can I expect to hear normally again?
I have had a sinus infection for about a week and a half now and was put on the antibiotic Ceftin 500mg twice daily. Before taking the medication only my left ear was stopped up, and I was very congested/fatigued. Now, after a week of taking this medication most all symptoms of the sinus infection have cleared, only now both of my ears are muffled and it sounds like I am underwater. I have seen no improvement in my ears whatsoever over the past week, but I still have a few days left on the antibiotic. I would love to be able to hear normally again, and appreciate any help or advice. Thanks.

Best to go back and ask the Doctor who treated you and prescribed the medication ?
