A member asked:
Does ear pressure, like when i pop my ears means higher intracranial pressure?

Unless you deliberately strain down to "pop my ears", you will not affect intracranial pressure. A Valsalva maneuver will transiently and modestly elevate the pressure gradient, but is immediately reversed on maneuver cessation.
