Why Does Wind Make My Ears Hurt? Posted: 06-26-05 12:21pm
Well this problem isn't at all major and
in fact I haven't had to deal with it in
years until today.
Basically, I went for a bike ride this
afternoon. It was quite warm out, but
i'm near the ocean and it was very windy.
After about fifteen or twenty minutes,
even though the wind was relatively warm,
my ears were killing me. The pain was
around the inside and also along the top
part of my outer ear, almost the way it
feels when your ears get really cold and
start aching in the wintertime, only my
ears were warm to touch. Basically, I
had to stop and wait about half an hour
for the pain to subside. Now that the
pain has gone away, they still feel kind
of hollow...
Why?!?! I don't have hearing problems
and i'm also pretty yuong (23). Does
anyone know what this is?

Wind Hurts Your Ears Posted: 07-19-05 13:39pm
I cannot tell you why, but I have the same
problem. I put a small piece of cotton
(one cotton ball split in quarters) in my
ears befor I go out to exercise on any day
that is cool, or windy. It completely
took care of the problem for me!
