Hi all
I’m diving in a remote part of the Philippines
Yesterday I was diving and was at about 10 metres, and dropped my balloon line and filled the balloon
Then I noticed it got stuck between rocks when I inflated it
So I went from 10 metres to 18 to loosen it, I grabbed the handle and shot up to about 9 metres
I was exhaling from my reggae, bubbles everywhere…
Afterwards I felt something in my lungs, like they expanded a bit ( the same feeling you get if you go for a run and haven’t gone in a while)
Now I feel possibly heart palpitations or a strange sensation there

I have no pain, dizziness, just a bit of an uncomfortable sensation to be honest
I’m remote do getting checked up could be a big deal but I have Dan insurance

Any advice, the five was 14 hours ago now
 
Make that call, and don't hesitate!
 
I've forgot to exhale during a rapid ascent myself. I felt some extra stretch in the chest and a little uncomfortableness for a day or so. However, you should probably call DAN.
