Swimmer's ear

I searched this forum in various ways and couldn't find this topic, which I find hard to believe. I think I have swimmer's ear, which is weird, b/c I haven't had that in decades. It seems to hurt at night, then itches. I'm wondering if it's ok to swim or should I wait it out. Do I need any kind of antibiotic ear drops? I usually use homemade drops (white vinegar/alcohol) after swimming, but haven't done it lately.

  • I wouldn't recommend using a hair dryer in any way shape or form to dry out an ear. One wrong move and you're blowing air directly into the ear. Not pleasant. I have used an OTC remedy that has worked 100% every time. Similasan. I've used it since high school to help dry my ears.
