A member asked:

I have a encephalocele from a hole in my tegmen. after flying i have salty water draining down my throat and worsening headache/dizziness ear pain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Headache: Your story doesn't sound right. Do you mean tagmen Tympani? you have brain protruding into the middle ear space (encephalocele)?, are you suggesting you have CSF leak and given this condition you have been flying? Does your doctor know that? I suggest you contact your neurologist and go to ER immediately. In the meantime, do not blow your nose and if you cough or sneeze, do it with your mouth open
