Hi everyone! I was just wondering if there's anything I can do about this screaming ear pain before Christmas vacation, or if I just have to deal with it. I hate flying!

Hey Saxgirl
A half an hour before you fly take a Sudafed (decongestant) or squirt some Afrin or Dristan in your nose. This does help.
Also, during take of and landing drink from a straw or chew gum.
Happy Holidays

Hmmm, sudafed helps but not always enough, & sometimes I forget to take it in time & then I'm totally screwed...but the Afrin sounds like a great idea cuz it works instantly. I'll have to try that along with the sudafed. Thanks!
