Go to the chemist and get a nasal decongestant spray.....something that contains ephedrine or otrovine. Give your nose a good spray, 20 mins before descent.
Hi Musicmummy
My wife suffers this problem as well - she bought some special ear plugs from Boots and she says they are really good.
Good luck
