I've found that it's one of those weird things about pressure and your ear. How you blow your knows makes the difference between popping your ear or not popping it. What happens is you build up some kind of pressure and pop goes your ear. I actually just did this and tried to find a fix for myself. There doesn't seem to be a one fix fits all here. I noticed some movement to 'pop' my ear back in place (or release the pressure) when I had a yawn make air move back where your tongue can almost "scratch" your ear. You know that weird spot? I also vibrated my ear drum only on that side. It sounds like built in sub speakers. That helped a little. The last thing I did was take a damp q-tip and carefully clean my ear. I didn't want to just jab the q-tip in there. But I gradually went to the spot where my ear canal felt 'full.' Carefully keeping pressure there seemed to slowly release the pressure. After finishing, I happened to naturally yawn and that instantly released the pressure. Bottom line, no one really knows how to fix that except your doctor. But you can at least try whatever helps you.
