Question:
Best way to ease swimmers ear?
Im planning on going to the doctor tomorrow but the pain is so unbearrable, ive tried heating pads, over the counter ear drops and alcohol and nothing seems to help at all, does anyone know something that might ease the pain until i can get to a doctor?
thanks in advance!
Answers:
When mine was like that i had to go to the E.R. and get water sucked out of my ear...I felt better after that...but if yours can wait, mix 50/50 white vinegar and rubbing alcohol...then just drop a few drops in the infected ear and it shouldn't hurt as much. Also, use some advil (2 if you're over 12) and that should ease the pain for about 5 hours...Also, my mom blew a warm hairdryer into my ear which helped dry up any excess water, and the heat helped the pain. hope i helped ya!
ciao for now,
tara =D
