Hello, I'm not familiar with the condition as you describe it. Have you consulted with a physician that specializes in disorders of the ear regarding the complaint of pressure? I would suggest that you go that route, if you have not done so already.  If you have seen an ENT specialist, I would recommend that you consult another physician (also an ENT or otologist) for a second opinion. There are often medical treatments that can resolve the issue of middle ear pressure. Regarding your hearing loss,  I recommend that you follow up to determine if hearing aids can be of help to you.  It's neither safe nor healthy to have untreated hearing loss.
