Query: Didnt work for me!

I get extreme ear pain on planes and nothing used to work. I get it regardless of allergies or colds. I tried sweets, gum, medicines and nothing worked except ear plugs. Plain old ear plugs.. I squish them and pull on the top of my ear to get them in good and I wear them for the first hour until I am we are done ascending. Then when it gets near to going down I put them in again. The trick is to get them in early. Any kind of descent will make my ears hurt immediately. Anyways for my last flight I bought these earplanes thinking they would be even better then earplugs and no way. They didnt work at all. I got pain right away and had to take them out and get my old trusty earplugs. If you are nervous you should wear the plugs throughout the whole flight but if its a long flight then it should be okay to take them out once you are up and level. Hope this helps!!
