Today I blew my nose quite hard (I was crying and certainly not thinking clear) and I felt slight, but pitching pain in my right ear. Also if felt like (sorry TMI) that mucus got into the ear. I don't feel dizzy, the pain has alleviated. I Valsalva'd my ear after without pain. Doing the Valsalva clogged my ears, but after yawning and swallowing, it's better. Do you think that this warrants a visit to a doctor to check out the state of the eardrum?
