Hey! First whenever I go diving I seem to equalize fine (ears pop as I descend), but farther down to about 20ft when I pop my ears it sounds like rice crispy treats (crackling after it pops). I almost always get barotrauma in my ear due to it and 2 weeks ago this caused me to have a middle ear infection. Is there anything I can try to help this?
Second off yesterday I had a stabbing pain (starting from my forehead, behind my eye, and down my cheek all on the same side) on decent about 50mins into our dive around 25ft. I went up to 20ft and it went away and about 10 mins later it came back. I've read it could be sinus barotrauma but I wasn't too sure since that was the last tank I used for the day (refilled twice)
Any help is appreciated!
