I must state this problem does not effect me all the time , but when it does is really uncomfortable.
What happens is my uvula( clacker to me ) when I dive sometimes swells up to a stupid sizes and lays on my tongue and when I swallow has the effect of sticking a finger down my throat, making me balk every time I swallow. Ive even honked up underwater with it! I have asked heeps of people about this and nobody can give me an answer. I can not find a set pattern for this happening it just takes me by supprise every time and spoils my dives. It happened a few weeks ago on a deep dive and I had 30+mins deco to do reaching evertime I swallowed, (not pleasent) It usually takes at least one day to go back down and totally does my head in!
Id like to know if anyone else has this problem, or if anyone knows the cause.:ne_nau: so I can prevent it from happening again.
