I know many of us suffer with.
I was wondering if anyone has had any kind of operation to correct it.
I've tried all the usual remedies, but have only heard of one minor operation that isn't widely available -
"A treatment recently developed is called balloon dilatation. This involves inserting a tiny tube with a small balloon on the end into the Eustachian tube through the nose. The balloon is filled with salt water and left in place for a few minutes in order to stretch the Eustachian tube. Currently the treatment is only being used as part of research, but may be authorised for general use if trials are favourable."

So has anyone had the "balloon" treatment or anything else?

As previously mentioned, I love to travel, but the pain and deafness after flying can last for a week, sometimes effecting the whole of my holiday
