Can I scuba dive if I have ear problems?


I am thinking about learning to scuba dive but I have read the medical statement and I answered yes to a few of them. I am going to my doctors to see if I can dive but I was wondering if anyone else has these problems and whether they can dive or know if it is safe to do so?
I have had ear surgery to enlargen my ear canals as they are very narrow because as a child I had glue ear. I also constantly have ear problems by the fact they always feel blocked because of the air pressure in my ears. I also get painful ears when I swim underwater in a swimming pool but I don't know if it's different to diving because I wouldn't be holding my breath. I also suffer from M.E and although I am getting better I still cannot do any strenuous exercise and I don't know how difficult scuba diving is. Serious answers please, thanks for any help!
I spoke to the woman who organises the diving but she didn't really know and told me to speak to a doctor.

No way. Very bad idea!

During Scuba Diving.. How to Equalize the ears pressure? If I wear EAR PLUGS, Will it help? Can we use EAR Plu?


During Scuba Diving.. How to Equalize the ears pressure? If I wear EAR PLUGS, Will it help? Can we use EAR Plug? If you have any URL and Images that would be great help.. Also looking for underwater communication signs.

Wearing ear plugs won't help you equalize. If anything it can actually be dangerous.
The most common way is using the valsalva method ( pinching your nose and gently blowing before you feel discomfort). Other methods include yawning or moving your lower jaw from side to side or swallowing.
I suspect your problems equalizing boil down to the fact that you're not doing it early enough. Once your tubes shut, it's too late and you'll need to come up a bit for them to open and try again.
