Best Answer

If the ear drum is in danger of rupturing from the pressure, a doctor can place tubes in the ear surgically to relieve the pressure. This still puts a small hole in the ear drum, but it has clean edges and is smaller so it has a much better chance of healing well.

There isn't anything you can do at home about this, however.

What is a human tube?

This is the tube that connects the ear with the throat. Its function is to equalize air pressure on both sides of the eardrum to keep the eardrum from rupturing and to reduce pain that may be felt when air pressure is reduced. When a person yawns or swallows, the eustachian tube opens, and some of the air in the middle ear may pass into the throat, adjusting the pressure in the middle ear to match the pressure in the outer ear.


How is the nose ear and tongue connected?

The nasal cavity and inner ear are connected through the Eustachian tubes, small mucus-lined tubes that help to stabilized air pressure in the inner ear to prevent the eardrum from rupturing.

The tongue is in the oral cavity, which communicates with the nasal cavity at the back of the throat.
