    AFAIK: The pressure difference doesn’t let your earparts (scientific term) move with sound waves as much: Correcting the pressure sets things back to “normal”.

      Ooh, interesting… So it’s pressure, but were would that pressure would be coming from and why is it suddenly “corrected” like that? That probably varies with when and were it happened but still

        Changes in atmospheric pressure, flexing the muscles you use to rumble/click your ears? Could be other factors too probably, I’m not an ENT or anything. Happens most often when gaining/losing elevation either by flying or going up a mountain or something.
