A member asked:

When i travel on airplane i start to feel like a horrible ache on my ears, then i start getting a headache. why?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Reduced air pressure: Airplanes cabins are only partly pressurized, resulting in unequal pressure in the ears unless you can equalize it by yawning wide. Most can. You may also be suffering from the lower oxygen content if you have some lung insufficiency. Discuss with md.
