Yes it does in many people. My mother has had barometric tinnitus where her ears would ring bad with a change in pressure, like when a storm was coming. I suggested she try some nose spray last night and within 10 minutes the ringing in her ears was gone.
It was like a miracle, because she's suffered for years from this. So I did some research and Oxymetazoline hydrochloride was the active ingredient for Afrin, which is the spray that did it. She had it again today, and it did the same thing, just got rid of all the ringing within minutes. I thought it might help because the nasal cavity is connected to the ears, and we had some sitting around, and nothing to lose by trying it.
The problem is a half ounce bottle of Afrin is $6.79 and wasn't going to last long. I checked more and found "Assured Nasal Relief Spray" is the generic, and they sell a 1 ounce bottle at dollar stores for .99 cents! It's a big problem for many people (the ringing was so loud she couldn't sleep or concentrate). I read on the message boards that nobody had a solution. The doctors said they couldn't find anything wrong with her, and this just clears all the ringing in her ears right away.

How are blood pressure and barometric pressure associated?
Changes in barometric pressure can affect blood pressure, especially in individuals who have cardiovascular conditions. When barometric pressure drops, it can cause blood vessels to dilate, leading to lower blood pressure. Conversely, when barometric pressure rises, it can cause blood vessels to constrict, resulting in higher blood pressure.
What is considered normal barometric pressure and how does it affect weather patterns?
Normal barometric pressure is around 1013.25 millibars. Barometric pressure affects weather patterns by indicating the movement of air masses. High pressure typically brings fair weather, while low pressure can bring stormy conditions. Changes in barometric pressure can also influence wind patterns and precipitation.
How does barometric pressure affect arthritis symptoms?
Barometric pressure, which is the weight of the air pressing down on the Earth, can affect arthritis symptoms because changes in pressure can cause joints to expand or contract, leading to increased pain and stiffness for some people with arthritis.
How does a barometers measurements affect weather?
A falling barometric pressure typically indicates an approaching low-pressure system and potential stormy weather, such as rain or thunderstorms. Conversely, rising barometric pressure often signifies fair weather with clear skies. Rapid changes in barometric pressure can also affect weather conditions, such as strong winds or temperature fluctuations.
What does Barometric Pressure tell us?
Barometric pressure is a measurement of the weight of the air above us. It can help predict weather changes, as high pressure often indicates fair weather and low pressure can bring in storms or precipitation. Significant changes in barometric pressure can also affect our bodies, leading to headaches or joint pain in some individuals.
Is barometric pressure the same as air pressure?
Yes, barometric pressure is a specific type of air pressure that is measured using a barometer.
Why is the barometric trend important to know?
The Barometric Trend is important to know so as to be able to tell air pressure. If the air pressure is high, the weather will be sunny, but if the air pressure is low, the weather will be cloudy.
What causes barometric pressure?
Barometric pressure is caused by the weight of the air pushing down on the Earth's surface. It is influenced by factors such as temperature, altitude, and weather patterns. Changes in barometric pressure can indicate changes in weather conditions.
Do changes in the barometric pressure make you tired?
Changes in barometric pressure can affect some individuals and lead to feelings of fatigue or tiredness. This is often associated with changes in weather patterns, such as approaching storms or shifts in atmospheric pressure. However, not everyone may experience this effect.
