With people's living standards getting better and better, long-distance travel has become a commonplace, and as a very convenient and fast means of transportation, airplanes have become the first choice of people who travel far. But how is it that someone will feel earache when flying?
That's because in the process of taking off or landing suddenly, the air pressure around people suddenly changes, but the human body can't respond to this change in time, resulting in the pressure in the cochlea is different from the external pressure, resulting in the blockage in the ear, and the tinnitus symptoms will appear, but the tinnitus symptoms will soon disappear. But the accompanying earache may last for a long time, even a few days after someone finishes flying. What should I do if I have ear ache in the plane?
Method 1: earplug
After getting on the plane, use earplugs to block your ears, especially when the air pressure changes greatly when the plane rises and falls. Wearing earplugs can slow down the speed of this change, and your body can be prepared to adapt to the change of air pressure. Generally, earplugs will be prepared on the plane. You can call the flight attendant to bring them to you. Or make an earplug with the toilet paper next to it.
Method 2: chewing and swallowing
In the process of rising and landing, the action of swallowing saliva all the time can ensure that the air pressure inside and outside the ear is the same, so it will not stimulate the ear, and the function of chewing is the same.
Method 3: Massage
Cover the ear with the palm of your hand, then release it and then cover it. Doing this repeatedly can ensure the pressure balance inside and outside the ear, or insert the finger into the ear and shake the finger, but remember not to hurt the inner part of the ear if the nail is relatively long.
