Why do ears suddenly start ringing in winter? If you don’t cover them, you will suffer from throat and headache.

News India Live, Digital Desk: When the temperature drops, we cover our chest and throat with mufflers, but leave our ears at the mercy of the wind. The structure of the ears is such that there is neither fat protection nor much muscle in it. In such a situation, the icy wind falling directly on the ears immediately cools the ‘control room’ of your body. What is the relation of the ears with the rest of the body? Perhaps you will be surprised to know that your ears, nose and throat are connected to each other by a thin tube, which is called ‘Eustachian tube’. Effect on the throat and nose: When the cold air from outside goes directly into the ears, it not only causes pain in the ears, but through this tube, It also worsens the pressure in your throat and nose. Many times people feel that they have a throat infection, whereas the root of the problem is cold ears. Headache and Migraine: The nerves of the ear are directly related to the part of your brain that feels pain. Excessive cold can cause swelling in the nerves, causing a severe headache or a ‘brain freeze’ feeling. Jaw Pain: Do you also suddenly feel a strain in your teeth or jaw in winter? Actually, the nerves behind the ears have a deep connection with the jaw. Cold in the ears often causes stiffness in the nerves of the face. Why do we have more problems in the ears in winter? Ear infections and ‘tinnitus’ (a feeling of whistling in the ears) become very common during the winter season. The reason for this is the sluggish blood circulation in the body due to low temperature. Due to reduced blood flow in the ears, their own heat is reduced, which increases the possibility of swelling in them. Some ‘desi’ and easy ways of protection: Use of scarf or cap: This is not for fashion, but a necessity. Always cover your ears when you go out. Light warm oil: If you feel pain in the ears, grandmother’s remedy ‘light warm mustard oil’ is very useful, but be careful not to cause injury to the ears. Be careful after bathing: Often people go out with wet ears, which is the biggest reason for catching cold. Dry the hair and the outer part of the ears thoroughly. Sesame seeds or gum: It may sound strange, but things with such properties keep the body warm from within, which also keeps the nerves of the ears healthy.
