How to prevent or quickly resolve ear disequilibrium after flight?
I landed from a transatlantic flight last Saturday and it is now Thursday, 5 days from arrival time, and I still cannot hear clearly from the pressure disequilibrium in my inner ears from the rapid descent of this flight. I tried yawning, hitting ears with shower stream, hopping on one foot with head tilted, but none of them worked. I won't use medication. This has happened before but not this long and so severe. The sounds I hear seem to be coming behind a wall rather than directly and it is annoying. Any suggestions appreciated
