apreitauer 0 #1 July 20, 2009 I am farely new to the sport. I have 32 jumps and just recently a couple hours after landing I couldn't breath out of my nose and when I swallowed my ears would clog. The first time it happend was when I did 5 jumps in one day and it happend again recently after just a couple jumps. I pressurize ok on the way to altitude and I have never had problems after opening. I have never had sinus problems before either. I also have to blow my nose for about 3 or 4 days after and there is never any headache or pain, just trouble breathing. Any one had anything similar?

skron 0 #4 July 20, 2009 If you already have sinus issues jumping will definitely make them worse. I only get what you're talking about when I have a sinus cold, but last summer my ears clogged really bad. When it didn't go away after a week I went to my Dr and he said my ear drums had collapsed. He put me on antibiotics or something and they got better,but he said if it happened again he wanted to put tubes in. You should definitely consult your own Dr.Well behaved women don't often make history. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
