Why do I get dizzy when I spin???

Your ears do more than just hear your brother's burps and act as earring supports.

They contain special organs that help you detect your motion, tell up from down, and keep you from tumbling when you trip. Whenever you move or tilt your head, fluid moving through canals in your inner ear interact with tiny hair along the canal walls, telling your brain that you are in motion. When you spin I'm circle, the fluid spins right along with you. Stop and the fluid keeps spinning, sloshing against the hairs and making your brain think you're still spinning -- which causes the feeling of dizziness .

Why do my ears pop on a plane( or when I am riding up a mountain)? ??

Plan cabins are pumped with air to simulate altitudes of around 7000 feet rather than sea level, and it takes 20 minute or so far on a plane to reach its cruising altitudes and interior pressure settings. That means passenger typically experience a gradual decrease in air pressure at the beginning of a flight and a gradual increase at the end, provides the destination airport is lower than 7000 feet. That gradual change in pressure is simillar to what you feel when cruising up or down mountain road or riding up or down a tall buildings in a fast elevator.
Behind your eardrums are small air-filled chambers that connected to your throat trough tiny tubes. When the air pressure outside your eardrums changes, air moves through the tiny tubes or equalize the pressure inside your head. That movement of air create a popping sensation. Some times if you have a cold or allergies gumming up your noggins empty spaces, your ears won't equalize quickly enough, causing louder pops and bursts of pin as air pressure  against your eardrums.

Why do my ears hurt when I  drive underwater? ?
For the same reason that your ears might ache when you take off in a plane: The pressure outside your ear is greater than the air pressure against inside your ear, causing your eardrums to bend painfully inward .Changes in water pressure happen much more rapidly than changes in air pressure, However, and your ears will begin to ache in as little as 5 feet of water.


How can I stop my ears from popping when I m flying or underwater diving??? ?
1. Chewing gum during take off and landing on a plane helps equalize your ears during the periods where the pressure changes the most rapidly.
2. If you don't have any gum, try moving your jaw Back and forth, sniffing rapidly or, yawning.
3. Some people can clear their ears underwater by moving their jaws.
