Why do some people's ears hurt due to flying and other's don't?
Question:
Answers:
it has to do with the mechanisms by which our bodies equalize the pressure in our ears. (Eustachian tubes) some peoples work really well (therefore won't notice any issues in a plane) and others don't work so well and they'll notice for sure... this can also be caused by things like ear infections or anything that plugs the tubes that hampers the equalizing of pressure
Some people have more sensitive ear drums.
I'd also like to know this lol. All I know is that when a plane lands and when it rises your ears...POP!
Some people's ears are more sensitive to the pressure change than others.
