Hello everyone!
I'm posting here because I really would like to enjoy freediving more but I have some issues with equalization and ear pain that I hope to solve.
I can reach a maximum depth of about 3-4 m, I try to equalize using Valsava (I think...) but, even equalizing many times before that depth, I start feeling pain at my right ear and I can't go deeper.
The strange thing is that when I try to equalize, I hear a hissing sound in my right hear instead of the click sound that I hear equalizing on land, while my left hear doesn't seems to equalize but doesn't cause any pain.
After that, for some hours after the dive, if I try to equalize on land I hear the same hissing sound and occasionally I feel a little pain during the following day.
I'm trying to learn Frenzel with no success until now.
Do you have any tutorial for dummies like me?
How can I solve this problem?
Thanks and sorry for my bad English
