What Is Swimmer’s Ear?
Swimmer’s ear (otitis externa) is an infection or inflammation of the outer ear canal, often after water has stayed in the ear.
Typical Symptoms
- Muffled hearing
- Itching inside the ear
- Discharge
- A blocked feeling
- Ear pain that is worse when you touch or pull the ear
What Can Cause Swimmer’s Ear
Water left in the ear after swimming or showering softens the skin of the canal and lets bacteria or fungi grow. Pools, the sea and cotton buds all add to the risk.
