What can I give to my 7yr old to relieve the pain of his ears "popping" while plane is taking off & landing?

Hello, I'm a doctor. Use Tramadol. I think that you want to get more info about it. Please go to ----> http://nurse7.notlong.com/0AAdMzx

Since your son has allergy and sinus problems, his doctor must have given him something to help with that. Most likely whatever he was given will also help him with popping his ears. I have had many ruptured eardrums in my childhood and adulthood, so I really understand the pain of not being able to pop your ears. I have tried everything and been to many specialist. I've been told I need to have tubes put in my ears. That being said, chewing gum would be a good place to start. Check out the link below, they have good advice under "prevention". The valsalve maneuver works very well. Gum does not work for me, but what works unbelievable well is beef jerky. Not the soft beef jerky, the harder stuff that you really have to chew on. I buy the brand - Oh Boy! Oberto, it's in a red package. It sounds funny, it's like a drug for me, I have to have it when I fly. I only wish my parents had thought of it when I was a child. Anyways, hope this helps!

When I flew to California two years ago, my brother was with me. He was 4 years old and has bad allergies like the rest of my family does. When he was uncomfortable with the popping, I told him to just keep swallowing. That seemed to work well for him.

I find sucky sweets help :] Because if you keep swallowing it helps some how :P I think chewing gum will help too :] take a allergy tablet too maybe? try Piriteze or go to the doctor for a prescription :] I think ear plugs might help too? Good luck on your flight :]

Gum would be good.
