Question about ear popping

Hello,
I just have a quick question about popping the ears. Every morning when I get out of bed my ears feel a little bit full, I then plug my nose and very very gently Pop them, I do this only once a day, in the morning, do you think I should stop doing this? cause I've heard stories of people destroying their ears after. Let me know! Thanks

 

My ent told me doing it gently a couple times a day is not a big deal. When my t first started I had an infection and I blew so hard I had vertigo and fell to the floor. Very scary. May have increased my t as well. Just be vvery careful man. Might be better to avoid altogether.
