Snorkel Dive

How do I dive/ snorkel deeper?
Okay so me and my friend have recently got into snorkeling in lakes and diving down to see what we can find as well as a little bit of Spear Fishing.. problem is, I can only go about 20 feet before my ears hurt like hell, how do i go deeper without it hurting? I've tried the thing where you plug your nose and exhale but for some reason I can't get it to work. maybe im doing it wrong? Is there something that I can use to cover my ears so they don't hurt or does the pressure get to you either way? and does this ear pain cause damage at all? I'd appreciate any helpful answers thanks
Yes you can damage something of you push it to the point you're feeling pain.
You're probably not equalizing properly or at the right time.
The second you begin to feel ANY discomfort is the time to begin equalizing. You leave it too long or go deeper without successfully equalizing and the eustachian tubes connecting your ears to throat and sinus cavities collapse making it impossible to equalize properly.
When discomfort starts, pinch your nose and with mouth closed gently blow. If you caught it in time, you'll hear a little pop. If you didn't catch it in time, you may actually have to come up a bit and try again.
There is another method that may work for you though. Try wriggling your jaw side to side when you first feel that bit of discomfort. It massages those eustachian tubes and can equalize. It doesn't work for everyone but it may for you.
