I can voluntarily open my eustachian tubes and hold them open, without needing to yawn or swallow. Makes it much easier to clear the pressure in my ears when changing elevation (like when flying in a plane).
Huh I think I can do the same. I always thought it was one of those things that everyone could do.
Same. Sometimes I can't, such as when congested, and it's super annoying and unbalanced.
yep, I have the same issue when congested.
Feels like a super power when you’re scuba diving and you see all the other divers holding their noses!
Weirdly, I can only do this with my right ear. Definitely helps on airplanes.
