Ear problems

Recommended Posts

Maybe I'm being overcautious, but personally I don't jump when I have a head cold. I know what that can lead to (ruptured eardrums and sinuses, to name something) and I don't think any jump is worth that.

Then again, my right eardrum has already been ruptured due to an ear infection I suffered as an infant (because my GP f***ed up, but let's not go there), so maybe I'm a special (read: basket) case in this.

Anyway, take care and remember that no jump is so important that it cannot be done another day in better health.

Understood, I just wanted to keep current and my thinking was that flying to Dallas and back cause this so lets see if going up will clear it. However i don't think I will go up again until it clears..........oof I'm falling apart.

humidity at Lost Prairie? ...

I am sure it is quite low, especially compared to the Houston area where I normally jump. I have also considered the fact that driving up there thru all of the constant elevation changes may have somehow helped in some way .... who knows? I agree with one of the others in this thread ... wish I had a better understanding of the ear and it's processes!!
As long as you are happy with yourself ... who cares what the rest of the world thinks?
