Do you know how to blow your nose? This seems very much like a foolish question. Blowing the nose to clear mucus is a very simple affair. I But physicians have long I known that blowing the nose too hard can cause trouble in the ear.

How does this happen? Today's Health, the magazine of the American Medical Association, explains. Two tiny tubes that have an opening in the upper part of the throat connect with the middle ear. one on each side. The tubes are basically "safety I valves" to keep air pressure in jthe middle ear the same as i outside. The eardrums do not normally permit any air to get in or out of the middle ear.

Adjustment of air pressure in the middle ear is normally carried out automatically and (without conscious effort. If i there is too rapid a change in outside air pressure, such as occurs when ascending or descending in a plane, the air in the middle ear may expand 01 contract. The eardrum wil' either bulge out or curve in and ear pain may be produced Then a conscious effort is needed to open the tubes ir the throat and let air in or out (of the middle ear. This can be done by swallowing, chewinj gum or holding the nose ant tryfcig to blow. The nose should be blown with both nostrils open, si there is no chance of bacl pressure developing and fore ing the tubes open.
