If you experience ear pain, pressure, or muffled hearing while flying, you may have a condition affecting the eustachian tubes, sinuses, or middle ear. These symptoms—especially during takeoff or landing—can be more than just an inconvenience; they may signal underlying issues like Eustachian Tube Dysfunction or barotrauma.
At ENT New York, Dr. Kumra provides personalized evaluations for patients who experience discomfort while flying. With tools like tympanometry and nasal endoscopy, she can determine the root cause and recommend preventive strategies, such as decongestants, pressure equalization techniques, or procedural treatments like balloon dilation.
