A member asked:

Yesterday i stretched my head up and heard a pop accompanied by severe pain and headache. pain is still intense and my ears feel clog, is it strain?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It is not strain: Such a pop is more likely a tympanic membrane (eardrum) or eustachian tube problem. Another potential cause could be a skeletal or muscular issue involving your upper neck vertebrae or your jaw.
