How can you release pressure from your ears?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Valsalva: Pinch your nose and swallow. This will open your eustachian tube and pinching your nose will force positive pressure into your middle ear as pressure in your ears is typically negative pressure. The positive pressure should help push it t neurtral.
