People with a cold usually have congestion forming in their sinuses and other air spaces. This congestion can block the airflow in your sinuses and eustachian tubes, making it hard or even impossible to equalize your ears while scuba diving. This is why you should not scuba dive with a cold?

Some scuba divers use anti congestion medication to be able to scuba dive. This is bad and you should never do this. Depending on the person and the conditions medication can wear off, be less effective, or cause side effects under pressure. This can cause serious problems underwater.

Can you Scuba Dive with a cold? Don’t scuba dive if you have or suspect a cold. Just stay home, rest and drink lots of water and then go scuba diving when you are fit and healthy again.
