When I first started, I always had problems within the first 10 meters - finally I seem to be OK now.
Try theses tips.
1. descend slowly and equalise often (gently)
2. If wearing a hood, pull it away from your ear and tilt your ear to the surface to release any trapped air. Wiggle finger in ear if necessary. repeat with other ear. Sounds rediculous but I found that this really helps.![]()
3. At the surface, rinse your face in water, helps get the mucus moving in your nose, allowing air to migrate.
4. When on the surface, stick your face in the water and blow through your nose to get a good clear out of the pipes![]()
A girl on holiday mentioned to me that she had proplems with her ears (she wore a hood) and I told her about tip 2. and it worked instantly for her, she was dead chuffed!.
