Blocked ear

I have a 7 month old who’s ear is blocked in front of ear drum. I’ve been the doctors twice with her now with them to tell me it’s nothing to worry about as she’s feeding fine so it’s no infection! I’ve tried olive oil to soften it so it falls out but that’s hasn’t worked! She’s trying to stick her finger in her ear and constantly pulling at her ear! Any tips??

I had my ear suctioned privately recently which removed the blocked feeling quickly. It was very gentle but a bit noisy and I had to stay still. Not sure if they would attempt it on a baby, but worth asking, they might have special safety adapters. There are ear suction devices on Amazon for babies, but I'd probably prefer a professional does it as I imagine tiny eardrums are delicate.
