The method of pinching nose and inflating is usually 1 day, 3-5 times each time, which can effectively alleviate the problems of negative pressure in middle ear cavity and tympanic membrane invagination caused by eustachian tube obstruction. The main causes of eustachian tube insufficiency are rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, nasopharyngitis, etc., which causes eustachian tube mucosal edema, and then produces negative pressure in the middle ear cavity and the tympanic membrane invaginates.

If the effect of squeezing the nose and inflating is not good, you can ask an otologist to blow the eustachian tube and blow the ball in the hospital, which usually has a better effect on eustachian tube obstruction. If necessary, puncture the middle ear tympanum to promote the opening of the eustachian tube.

Precautions:

Please avoid repeatedly pinching your nose to inflate.

Repeatedly pinching the nose and inflating can make the eardrum swell and flatten. However, the eardrum swells because there is air flow from the nasal cavity into the eustachian tube, which increases the pressure on the inner ear.

In addition to avoiding repeated blowing, you should also pay attention to avoiding overexertion when blowing your nose. Blowing your nose hard may also cause it to enter the eustachian tube.
