HE👉 As you descend, water pressure increases, compressing air. When ascending, pressure decreases, and air expands back to its original volume.
This is what happens inside your ears when you dive. As you go deeper, pressure increases, your eardrum gets pushed inward 😖
That's why divers equalize every few seconds to protect their ears 😌
👉 For people who wonder what is equalization, here is for basic knowledge :
To equalize, scubadivers pinch their nose and blow gently from it while keeping it pinched. They ear a slight "pop" sound. This is done all the way during descent and never during ascent. Scubadivers must never force when they do this, it has to be smooth and light.
⚠️Always train with qualified instructors⚠️
