It's good that you are talking to DAN and I won't get into all the things the instructor said.

My wife had the reverse sinus squeeze while doing a Discover Scuba class. She was in a bad shape for about 4 hours following the dive and has never had any "want to" to try it again. (sucks for me)

As stated over and over, blood from the nose and ears while diving is never a good thing. Hopefully, the blood is nothing more than a simple sinus thing, but it warrents checking out.....especially, since you had other issues.

Though not exactly related to your incident, I still suggest you take a look at the video 'A diver's ear'. This video will help you understand more about how your ear is affected when you dive.

I would hope his problem was gone as he posted because if not he sure does need to see a doc ASAP.

I had a reverse block once, not fun.

The cure, well not really, just don't dive when you're congested, just getting over a cold, or you just recently had one. Only dive when you can breathe well, or you know your body well enough to know when it's saying yes or no.

Coming up, not much you can do except suck in or stay at the depth it doesn't hurt until it clears on it's own. It's similar to going down where you stop descending if it hurts and go up, except here you go down instead and then wait and see if it clears. Sometimes it can help.
