6. Steam
As the sinuses are connected to the ears, clearing them of mucus using steam may be an effective way to unclog the ears when suffering from a cold or an allergy. Boil some water in a bowl or pot. After removing it from the heat, place a towel over the head and carefully lean over the pot. Take deep breaths to inhale the steam and clear the sinuses.
Standing under a hot shower for 10 to 15 minutes should also have a similar effect.
