Pressure in ears - corgan115 - 04-03-2023
Hey folks,
Out of seemingly nowhere I'm having an issue that I believe is related my CPAP therapy. I have pressure in my ears that randomly flares up. Think of being on a plane, that feeling you get in your ears where you have to yawn... except yawning doesn't work. Or rather it relieves the pressure and then it comes right back. I have it throughout the day and but it is much worse when I turn on the CPAP. Sometimes to the point of considerable pain.
Has anyone else experienced this and possibly have any advice?

Are you new to cpap ? I have never experienced this but have heard is common for some new users

Been on CPAP about 8 months now. Pressure issues just started last month. Very strange for it to just start.
Doc said could be seasonal allergies and gave me some allergy medicine. Helped only slightly.
