Summer is approaching and the time to splash around in your backyard pool or the blue waters of the Gold Coast is almost here. But as enjoyable as swimming can be, it can also cause some health risks to your family, and one of them is contracting \u201cswimmer\u2019s ear\u201d. It\u2019s an inflammation or infection of the ear canal, which can spread through your inner ear and skull if left untreated.<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t worry, though. The first step to avoiding swimmer’s ear is understanding what it is and what causes the condition.<\/span><\/p>\n

What causes swimmer\u2019s ear?<\/h2>\n

Medically known as <\/span>otitis externa<\/span><\/i>, swimmer\u2019s ear happens most often during summer when people swim frequently, and when humidity is high. It is commonly caused by water that stays inside the ear canal. Because this part of the ear is warm and dark, the water that lingers becomes an ideal environment for fungi and bacteria, which will multiply and infect the ear canal.<\/span><\/p>\n

The loss of ear wax also contributes to getting a swimmer\u2019s ear. Ear wax is the organ\u2019s natural protectant. But due to water that enters and leaves the ear when swimming, the ear wax gets washed away, leaving the ear unprotected.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have an existing ear injury or skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis, then you are also likely to get a swimmer\u2019s ear, especially if you happen to swim in a polluted body of water.<\/span><\/p>\n

Symptoms of swimmer\u2019s ear<\/h2>\n

You\u2019ll know that you\u2019ve been infected with <\/span>otitis externa<\/span><\/i> after swimming if you feel pain every time the ear is pressed or bumped. The pain will worsen over time. Other symptoms of swimmer\u2019s ear include the following:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Itchiness inside the ear<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Temporary loss of hearing<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Red and swollen outer ear<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Smelly yellow or green liquid coming out of the ear<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Sudden fever<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Preventing swimmer\u2019s ear<\/h2>\n

    It\u2019s best to always be proactive and not wait for these symptoms to manifest. You can avoid swimmer\u2019s ear by cleaning and drying your ears every time you are done swimming, even when using bathing caps or earplugs. Do not use cotton swabs or tissue because they\u2019ll scratch the inside of your ear and cause more damage. Instead, use a hairdryer to dry your ears.<\/span><\/p>\n

    If you feel that water is trapped inside the ear, you can apply a 3% hydrogen peroxide solution using a dropper to remove any solid ear wax. Drain the solution by tipping your head to the side and dry your ear using a hairdryer.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Swimmer\u2019s ear treatment<\/h2>\n

    If you experience any of the symptoms of a swimmer\u2019s ear, make sure to clean your ears right away. You can take over-the-counter medicines like ibuprofen to relieve the pain and decongestants like Benadryl to relieve other symptoms. A hot compress can also help ease the pain and swelling.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Mild cases of <\/span>otitis externa <\/span><\/i>may be treated with non-prescription ear drops. Home-made ear drops like the mixture of rubbing alcohol and white vinegar are also a good alternative treatment. However, ears with discharge are not advisable to be applied with ear drops.<\/span><\/p>\n

    When to seek medical advice<\/h2>\n

    Most cases of swimmer\u2019s ear will go away on its own after a few days. Nevertheless, it\u2019s still best to see a doctor for medical advice, however mild or strong the case of your swimmer\u2019s ear maybe. An ear specialist (ENT, Otolaryngologist, or Otologist) will be able to clean your ear safely, prescribe the right oral antibiotics and ear drops, and give the best advice for recovery.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Seeking medical advice from a doctor will also prevent further complications like narrowing of the ear canal, facial infection, and malignant <\/span>otitis externa <\/span><\/i>(skull infection).<\/span><\/p>\n
