Airplane Ear (Ear Barotrauma)

• • Imbalance in ear and environmental air pressure causes stress on the eardrum.
  • Common during airplane ascent and descent.
  • Also known as ear barotrauma, barotitis media, or aerotitis media.

Self-Care Solutions and tips to avoid Airplane Ear:

• • Yawning, swallowing, or chewing gum can alleviate symptoms.
  • Employ the Valsalva maneuver (blowing gently with nostrils pinched and closed mouth) to equalize pressure.
  • Stay awake during takeoffs and landings for self-care techniques.
  • Avoid flying with colds, sinus infections, congestion, or ear issues.
  • Use nasal spray for congestion but avoid overuse.
  • Take allergy medication before the flight if needed.
  • Consider filtered earplugs for gradual pressure equalization

Consult a Doctor for Severe Cases: Seek medical attention for severe airplane ear symptoms.
