Ears

[Guest guest]

Thank you. She is going to get them AND do the HP. I'll let you know how

she makes out.

My original post explains they are NOT earplugs. They are designed

to in a sense extend your ear canal and thus make pressure changes

gentler and easier. Those who have trouble pressurizing and

depressurizing often have small ear canls or little kinks or turns

int heir canals. These are these blue things with sort of spirals on

the outside (soft plastic) that have a hole in the middle. You kind

of gently " screw " them into your ear.

I have no trouble on planes but I use them without fail in my

hyperbaric oxygen tank, they make a huge difference. They should do

the trick.

The h202 would be if she had an infection but it sounds longstanding

and structural.
