Why do my ears slightly pop when I swallow or move my throat? - PaleoHacks.com most recent 30 from http://paleohacks.com2013-06-20T09:22:50Zhttp://paleohacks.com/feeds/question/72671http://www.creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/2.5/rdfhttp://paleohacks.com/questions/72671/why-do-my-ears-slightly-pop-when-i-swallow-or-move-my-throatWhy do my ears slightly pop when I swallow or move my throat?Ben Nash2011-10-26T00:58:20Z2013-03-14T18:16:29Z
<p>It's not bad, and it doesn't really hurt, it is just annoying. What causes this, and how do I get rid the popping, or is this normal? </p>
<p>The popping isn't like a popping when you have an altitude change. It feels more like your ear is making a popping noise without it actually popping, if that makes sense. :P </p>
<p>I don't know how else to say it. </p>
<p>Help me out. Thanks!</p>

Happens to everyone, it's not Paleo related, I promise. </p>

I got mine rid off by... boarding a plane to Europe (I was going there for vacations), swimming at sea and letting the water getting in the ear (a few annoying days with the ear being blocked), but ultimately it went away (for the most part) when I switched to paleo.</p>

I also have a slight case of TMJ. My jaw pops, and so do my ears.</p>
<p>It used to be much worse, when I would get constant ear-aches that ended up draining into my throat and infecting my tonsils, and years of smoking and allergies didn't help either. Now that I've been paleo though, I haven't had a sore throat once, nor have I had any seasonal allergies like I used to.</p>
<p>Good luck with your narrow tubes.</p>

<p>The ear popping was the only symptom that I got. </p>
<p>Considering that pre-paleo I might as well have been eating off a subway floor (I was sick all the time!) I counted my blessings. </p>

So if you have any inflammation there its probably going to pop and you will hear that. </p>

A lot of times that comes with noisy jaws when your throat moves. It's not uncommon. </p>
