Yo.
I am going on me holibobs in Sept, and i am flying!!! Yes me, your resident BA Baracus, flying!! Not happy about it, but hey ho, its a hol, and to be fair i need one!!
My question to the Charlton life masses is thus!! Why do your ears hurt when you fly, this gives me particular stress and pain, maybe cos i am wimp, maybe something else, such as ear wax or some such!! If i were to go and get me ear oles syringed by me quack, would this help the ear pain on a air plane!??! Or is it something i am stuck with!! I don't let any water ever get near my ears, in the bath i will hold me ears if i go under, but mainly shower now a days to avoid water in ear syndrome, i hate it!!
What to do!??!

However, I have found that the best solution is a combination of yawning and swallowing - you may look a bit of a prat but who cares if it works - anyway many others have the same problem.
Anyway we are flying first class (nice) so will be wankered anyway (More champaign Mr Caddock, oh dont mind if i do lol) have to be very bladdered anyway to fly, so that will take the edge off. Last time i flew, it was longy to Canada, i got worzled before, and it wasn't that bad, still shat me slef, but was just about bearable, but on the descend it well hurt, and i sucked many a fishermens friend SHG!! lol
Spose by the advice of you goons, i am just going to have to grin and bear it, yawn alot, and have a mouthful of fishermen!
Activate your gag reflex. If you're struggling to do that I've got some wicked footage on my phone that will help you, seeing as you're going away same sort of time as me I have all summer to collect more stuff to send, then make a sort of playlist for the critical times.
Sorted mate, just count on your pal Dicko
I have had the kind of pain I can't even describe once when decending into rome, got the row of sweat on the brow as was in absolute agony...
get them syringed and do all the other stuff and youll be sweet.....
Littluns should be banned from business/first class !!!
Just hold your nose as if you are under water, and try to blow out of it at same time.
This will equalise the pressure inside and out of your ears.
Even if you try it now you can feel it equalising.
I used to be in agony for hours after a flight, the old lug 'oles dont like flying! Someone recommended these Ear Planes and I've used them on probably half a dozen flights since - completely cured the problem. Just stick them in when the plane is heading out to takeoff, take them out once it reaches cruising altitude and then pop them back in as soon as the descent starts...
Can find them in Boots/Superdrugs etc
No change there then!
