do you dive in cold water? does your wetsuit fit right up until the mask?? Mine does not and it gives me 10 mins of pain on the way into the water. Things are OK afterwards though, and I secretly think it helps my dive reflex... (dreaming)
re-sinuses, a crusty old spearo gave me a great tip: on entering the water, take your mask off, face down in the water and "sniff in" a little salty water. Put the mask back on after about 15 sec.s and in about 10 mins things should get flowing (out). I assume that this would be a very bad idea for sensitive sinuses or with dirty water, neither of which I suffer,. It has helped me a lot to clear blockages.
