E-rx.onlineLocal Tips for Swimmer’s Ear in Manavgat
Manavgat is known for its waterfall and river boat trips, so boat days, sun and sea water mix together. On beach holidays, heat, sun and swimming can aggravate many conditions, so rest, drink water and tell the doctor what you have been doing.
Understanding Swimmer’s Ear
Swimmer’s ear (otitis externa) is an infection or inflammation of the outer ear canal, frequently after water has been trapped in the ear.
Symptoms of Swimmer’s Ear
- Itching inside the ear
- Discharge
- Muffled hearing
- Ear pain that is worse when you touch or pull the ear
Why Swimmer’s Ear Happens
Moisture trapped after a swim or shower softens the canal lining so germs can grow; swimming pools, the sea and cotton buds raise the chance.
Care and Treatment for Swimmer’s Ear
You will discuss symptoms with the doctor, receive care advice and ear drops if appropriate; if there is no improvement you may be asked to have the canal examined in person. Treatment can involve antibiotic, antifungal or steroid ear drops, acidifying drops and pain relief.
- Keep the ear dry until it heals
- Do not use cotton buds or put anything in the ear
- Take simple painkillers as directed on the pack
- Dry the outer ear gently with a towel after washing
