Having recently returned to fitness swimming (with an eye toward my first triathlon), I am re-experiencing water in the ear syndrome. I have purchased, and am using some commercial drops (name escapes me at the moment) which does help dry out the ears.
My question is whether simple alcohol will work as well as the drops. Am curious to know what any of you may use for this.
Thanks, Nancy

Having had "water in ear" problems for decades, my
current solution involves 3 items: ear plugs,
a head band and a cap. I have had no problems since using this combination. Ear plugs go in 1st, band on 2nd, and cap covering all of the
above 3rd. The plugs used to come out before I started using the band. The band I use is available at the following URL:

Hope this helps. Bob
