Periodically I experience a "popping" sound in my ears. It sometimes gets so loud it makes me flinch. What could this be? I can hear well?

A popping sound in the ear is most likely caused by Eustachian tube dysfunction. Normally, the eustachian tubes allow for pressure equalization in the middle ear and drainage of typical, normal middle ear fluid. They also keep fluids from the nose or throat from getting in the middle ear.

There are a variety of causes, such as colds, allergies, smoking, and second-hand smoke exposure. Flying at high altitudes can also cause the eustachian tubes to temporarily malfunction. Chewing and/or swallowing usually helps when flying.

There are also some ear plugs, called cirrushealthcare.com/EarPlanes-C8.aspx Ear Planes that I find helpful. Sometimes decongestants are used to help individuals with allergies, or if it is caused by a cold then just waiting until the cold passes will usually take care of the popping. If it becomes frequent, then see your doctor.

It's most likely air pressure. Try shutting and "closing" your ear canals with your fingers. You press the little piece of skin connected to your face not your ear.Do it fast but not too fast.

Once per second, if that doesn't help tell me more about the sound and details.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
