Hi all!

        I'm hoping someone can help me with this one.  We have a Doc trying
to find a correlation between cold air temperature and inner ear pain.
Whenever the weather temperature drops below 50 degrees or so it causes pain
in the inner ear possible around the drum area.  Also during a very cold
spell the patient had a blast of cold wind go directly into the ear canal
causing severe pain quite a few years ago.  Since then every winter causes
ear pain.  Funny thing is it happens with air conditioning temperatures as
well so the psych link is not truly applicable.

Thanks in advance.
