What Is Ear Barotrauma and How Can I Prevent It When Flying?

Ear barotrauma happens when pressure changes—like during takeoff or landing—damage the eardrum or middle ear.

Prevention Tips:
✅ Yawn, swallow, or chew gum during ascent/descent
✅ If with nasal congestion, you may use prescribed intranasal or oral decongestants.
✅ Try earplugs designed for flying

If you feel severe pain or hearing loss after a flight, consult your ENT.

While earwax is essential for ear health, too much can cause clogged ears, muffled hearing, and tinnitus (ringing in the ears).

Earwax can be safely removed at home, but if symptoms linger, visit a healthcare provider.

Never use a cotton swab or stick anything in your ears in an attempt to remove earwax buildup.
