AB  - Constantly  increasing  in  number,  the  recreational  and  commercial  diving  community  frequently  presents  with  problems  poorly  understood  by  the  average  physician  and  otolaryngologist  unless  they  have  had  some  training  in  diving  medicine.  The  consequences  of  breathing  compressed  gas  mixtures  under  increasing  barometric  pressure  and  subsequent  decreasing  barometric  pressure  are  confusing  unless  one  understands  the  physics  and  physiology  of  the  pressure  environment.  A  well-trained  otolaryngologist  can  be  better  prepared  to  treat  the  conditions  that  divers  encounter  by  understanding  the  cause  of  these  conditions.
