Help Please, Did Valsalva Manoeuvre and a Whistling Noise Started

I just did the valsalva manoeuvre and after I did it a whistling noise has started and won't go away, has anyone had this before?

It's loud and very distracting

 

Hi, I met a girl once when I had T and she went diving and her ear popped ... it lasted a few weeks but than in the end it went ... she was very lucky ... it could happen to you too ... I was afraid for her.

we still don`t know why the hell would this sound start?? that is a major question ...

I wonder if this would be a good time for you to immidiately start a small course of Trobalt to interupt the T signal ...

anyone else have an idea??

@Danny Boy @attheedgeofscience @linearb @Markku ?

Would be a great test to be honest ...

See the best ENT in town (skip the doctor) !! ask for a decompression tank asap ... ask questions till they kick you out


and never blow your nose closing two holes, only one!

 

If it were me, I'd go see an ENT or even an ER to get their opinion; I would also try to relax about it because I'd think that the likely scenario is that this caused a slight barotrauma, and despite the occasional horror story, as far as I know problems following barotrauma tend to be self-limiting and of relatively short duration (hours to days).

Barotrauma following airplane descent is very common, and I personally know a number of people who have had this problem at some point. With the exception of two people from this forum, I don't know anyone who's had permanent issues as a result. (I do have a friend with long-standing tinnitus who just had a serious diving accident which could have killed him, and has said that his tinnitus is now much more significant -- but the accident just happened two weeks ago, so it's pretty early to leap to any conclusions. In any case, the pressure you're subjected to in a dive accident is likely to dramatically exceed what you're going to do to yourself blowing your nose).

Think about it this way: billions of people blow their nose every day. If it were not incredibly unlikely for this to lead to long-term complications, there would be advisories about it.

 

Eh, this doesn't seem very mysterious to me; there is a lot of information available.

The noise seems to have stopped now luckily. But my ear makes a crackling noise each time I swallow which is alarming and my left ear won't pop and feels asif it's stuck shut
