Hey everyone, I have flown twice in my life that I can remember. Apparently I flew as a baby a few times (sorry). I flew from chicago to boston to visit with my aunt. That was on Friday. I was fine the whole flight until the initial approach. I started to experience the worst pain I have ever had in my head ever. My right ear didnt hurt too bad, but my left was incredibly painful, so much that I was shaking. After landing my left ear was clogged up , but it got better over night. But then yesterday afternoon it got clogged up again and healed overnight. The same thing happened today. I have tried the most popular techniques including yawning, gum, and trying to "pop" my ears by inhaling and then closing my nose and mouth. My allergies were giving me a bit of trouble Friday morning, but it went away later. The flight wasn't until 7 pm. I will be flying home on Tuesday and I will try the gum and yawning on takeoff and landing. If the issues don't go away after a few days at home, should I go to the doctor? Are there any other things that I can do to combat this? I spent an hour or so reading up on it and the only thing that I can come up with is either an ear infection or my sinuses acting up. I havent had any allergy issues being here. When my left ear is plugged up it looses most of its hearing.
