Barotrauma

Hi..I recently suffered a barotrauma in my left ear. My ear drum wasn't perforated..but I have constant ringing in my ears. The ENT said it will stop in its own time...and no scuba diving for 2 months...oh dear !

Has anyone else experienced the same thing? and how long did the ringing last?

SCUBA Diving and AsthmaSCUBA Diving and Asthma
For as long as I can remember I wanted to SCUBA dive. I remember being fascinated by my dad’s cylinders of air with yellow flaking paint and belts of lead weights that lay around the house, and the promise of what lay beneath the surface of the sea. As luck would have it, by the time I seriously started thinking about diving I had been diagnosed with adult asthma.
