Samhar, with the kings reef comment on my systems page, I assumed you surfed. My wifes ears are 90% closed from cold water bone growth, but she hates ear plugs too. We will both check out the plugs from spain, I think I have seen people wearing them here. They might work up my nose? Water isn't getting stuck in the outer ear side of the eardrum, it's the nose/sinus/eustachian side. Interesting you mentioned the compensation for hearing loss with plugs. I tried for 1 month and hated it, your hearing and vision are so connected it felt like surfing with blinders on. I figured I would rather blow my eardrums every few years and deal with it, then having to deal with plugs everyday, it really affected my surfing.
Mr photon, is a neti pot a tool, or an additive to the saline? If you mean flushing out the sinuses with saline, that is what happens everytime I go surfing, any wipeouts, and there are usually many, and I can drain about 1/4 cup of salt water from my right nostril ( the most recent eardrum burst ) so there is no problems with getting the saline up there.
Thanks for your replies
