Looking for some advice if you are a diver. And even better if you know the north east of England. I understand the difference between a dry and wet suit, problem is I have a perforated ear drum. Had it for over 20 years so its not going to heal.

What I want to know is can I but a dry suit head peice?

That way I can wear a wet suit and my head will remain completely dry thus allowing me to dive.

Any help or advice would be great cheers

Haven't dived for some time but when I did the rule was that you must never block the eardrum. You need to maintain a clear nasal passage etc in order to equalise the pressure the deeper you dive. You do this by squeezing the nose, closing your mouth and blowing.

I suppose that's the good thing about the perforation. Pressure has never been a problem, yet..lol
