Airplane Ears Make Flying Painful. Millions of people dread flying. Itâs not really the long security lines, the puny snacks or the lack of leg room. Itâs not even the frequent delays or the lost luggage. For a lot of fliers the problem is ear pain. Airplane ears are caused when the pressure inside the middle ear doesnât equalize to the pressure in the cabin.
Pain and discomfort in the ear due to pressure differences between the inside and outside of the eardrum is known as ear barotrauma. Normally, air pressure in the middle ear is the same as the pressure outside the body. You are most likely to experience air pressure differences during altitude changes, such as when youâre in an airplane that is descending, when you go into the mountains or scuba dive.
