on september 7, a reporter from upstream news called the meteorological departments of hainan province and guangdong province. a staff member of the guangdong provincial meteorological bureau responded, "this is caused by the low air pressure in the center of the typhoon eye, which is a normal phenomenon." he further explained, "the closer the typhoon is to the center, the lower the air pressure. the central air pressure of this super typhoon 'makar' is about 930 hpa, and the normal standard atmospheric pressure is 1015 hpa. when the eye of the typhoon passes through an area, the atmospheric pressure will drop abnormally, so the human body will have some corresponding reactions, such as tinnitus, dizziness, nausea, etc. there was also a sudden tinnitus when the plane took off. after the eye of the typhoon passed, the air pressure returned to normal."

regarding the above symptoms reported by netizens, a staff member of haikou people's hospital said: "strong winds may cause imbalance of air pressure in the ears, causing tinnitus or other symptoms. this is usually temporary and will disappear on its own after the air pressure returns to normal. if tinnitus, dizziness, and nausea still occur after the strong winds, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time to identify the cause and carry out appropriate treatment."
