Question: !advise please =:) (EASY 10 POINTS)!?
i'm going on my first plane trip alone and I have a serious ear presure problem, does it help when you chew gum or what else helps!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Gum helps ALOT! Also if you know how to make yourself yawn, do that often!.!.!.
Listening to your IPOD very loudly MAY work, it works for me!.
When on a plane and your ear pressure is higher, you barley notice untill you yawn!.
My best advice to you is listen to loud music!. make sure the person next to you likes it too =]Www@Answer-Health@Com

The best advice I've heard is to pop your ears before flying to equalize the pressure!. If you're a scuba diver you know what this means!. If not then you're going to hold your nose closed, keep your mouth shut, and breathe out to try to gently increase the pressure in your ear canal!. If you do this too hard you're ears may hurt from this!. Not the most attractive thing to do on a plane, but this is a cure I've heard works!.
Hope this works!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i second dragonleheart!. find out from an audiologist if there is anything more, because the yawning, chewing gum, and clearing (scuba) techniques is all i've heard, but a specialist who understands the structure and funcion of the inner ear can tell you more accurate info!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Chewing gum is the standard way!. I've also heard that rubbing the tip of your tongue on the back roof of your mouth will make your ears pop!.

Yawning can do it too!.

But for a first timer, take gum!. :o)Www@Answer-Health@Com

yeah chew gum!. Many people believe it will help you!. Also, when going up and coming down, try to yawn a lot!. Works for me!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Take Benedryl day before flight;
Take Afrin day of flight before you take off & then 1 more time that day!.
Take Sudafed day after flight!.

Bon Voyage!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Chewing gum really helps and there are bracelets for when your fly on planes and they seem to work too!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
