Hi guys
Im new to scuba diving and this is my first post here. I just went for my first pool dive and i had trouble equalizing. It was only abt 2.4 metres or 8 feet.
I have trouble because I usualy close my mouth and swallow to equalize and here I was biting on the mouthpiece and it was difficult for me. I tried to pinch my nose and blow out and it didnt work either. I would really love to dive and I hope this wont hold me back. If I cant equalize that means I cant dive, I dont want to give up.
I would appreciate if you guys could give me tips and pointers on how I could do it better. I have one more pool dive before I go open water
Its been 5 hours since and my right ear is still blocked and hurting a little. I hope i did not rupture my ear drums? Should I see a doctor?
Thanks.
