Your blood vessels dilate in pregnancy. If you feel otherwise well, this is probably the cause.

I had this last night, I'm 19 weeks. It was SO annoying. I have had a cold recently, could be linked to that I guess.

How do you ease symptoms or get rid. Is it worth going to doctor I had it all day at work cudnt concentrate

No treatment that I'm aware of.

My ear sounds like it's popping and I have a constant ache

Ash i think it's worth having a nurse or doctor take a look inside to check it's not infected, but if you don't have a temperature and it's not agony then it's probably just a bit congested and/or some weird pregnancy thing.

Thanks I'll try and get in with a doctor but that doesn't happen easily lol.
