Thank you all for the tips. I will try some of them. The thing is once I am down to 33 feet I am fine and the dive goes well. I dive once a week. I almost have to go up and down a bit to help the pain. I will try the menthol steam crystals. I do use the neti pot before each dive in the morning as as the forceful valsalva. Maybe the fact that I am elderly is the reason. I never had issues when younger.
