I have had this little issue for well over 5 years. Whenever I workout -- and it is almost entirely whenever I am exerting myself -- my LEFT ear will plug up. It's almost always my left ear, but sometimes my right as well.
I am SCUBA certified and never have any issues with my ears plugging up, except when I am workout out. It will occur once I start talking, and annoy the shit out of me. Then, I have to pull that little maneuver where you have to open your jaw and simultaneously give a little push of air through your ears. I have somehow always forgotten to notify my provider during exams, because it's not an issue while I'm there (no pain is associated....just plugged up) but at the same time, whenever I have had my ears looked at, they note nothing abnormal. How do I prevent this nuisance (besides remembering to talk to my doc the next time I see him -- which I will do)? |
