Diver Squeeze at Fidel Musselwhite blog

Diver Squeeze. As the spray wears off during diving, tissues swell and cause obstruction, resulting in a pressure difference and damage. A reverse squeeze occurs in the middle ear or sinus when a diver has an upper respiratory infection (cold) and has used nasal spray to open the breathing passages. Mask squeeze (facial barotrauma) is a feeling that occurs when scuba diving as a result of failing to equalize the pressure inside the diving mask. The affect of the mask squeeze is to cause a facial and eye barotrauma, or bruising of the skin and eyes. This is also called (sinus) barotrauma. The first sign of this type of sinus barotrauma is generally a sharp pain. Sinus squeeze, a condition where pressure inside a sinus cavity causes pain, commonly occurs when a scuba diver cannot equalize sinus pressure due to nasal congestion. Symptoms of facial barotrauma may include facial bruising, nosebleeds, red eyes or face, and in rare cases, changes in vision. During descent (squeeze) failure to equalize pressures on paranasal sinuses while descending keeps these cavities at atmospheric pressure, which results in a relative negative pressure (vacuum) as you descend to depth. Mask squeeze or eye barotrauma occurs during the decent. Mask squeeze (face squeeze) is when a scuba diver fails to equalise the pressure of the airspace inside their mask. A reverse squeeze occurs to your middle ear or sinus when a diver has an upper respiratory infection (cold) and has used nasal.
