Ear popping trouble...?!


Question: Ear popping trouble!.!.!.!?
This doesn't happen often, but I was unable to "pop" my ears on the airplane (I think due to the cold)!. I have tried every single method to pop my ears except going to the doctor!. I really, really do not want them to put an incision in my ear drum!. I've heard that it is ridiculously painful!. I am almost sure that I have an ear infection now, because I wasn't thinking and held my nose and blew to try to pop my ears (didn't work), blowing infectious mucus to my ears!. Any suggestions!?
BTW: my ears hurt really, really, really bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I've never heard of them putting incision in your ear drum!.

You can try to pour Hydrogen peroxide into your ears!. (It will feel weird because of bubbles)!. Keep head tilted till bubble noise subsides, then do other ear!.

However, it sounds like you may have waited too long & do have infections!.
Go to ENT now!.

I also get this, but usually only lasts for a day or two!. You really should get it checked if its that bad, or if it continues for a long time!.

(on planes its due to the change in air pressure and is nothing to worry about, just continuously attempt to "pop" your ears until it works!. BE WARNED! you will have to do this again when you land, to revert the process)Www@Answer-Health@Com
