Answers:
Swimmer's ear may start with some itching, but try not to scratch because this can worsen the infection!. Ear pain is the most common sign of swimmer's ear!. Even touching or bumping the outside of the ear can hurt!. The infection also could make it harder to hear with the infected ear because of the swelling that happens in the ear canal!.

If a doctor thinks you have swimmer's ear, he or she will help you get rid of the infection!. To do that, the doctor will probably prescribe eardrops that contain an antibiotic to kill the bacteria!. Sometimes, the doctor may use a wick!. Not the wick on a candle! This kind of wick is like a tiny sponge the doctor puts in your ear!. The medicine goes into the sponge and it keeps the medicine in contact with the ear canal that's infected!. The wick is removed after it has done its job!.

Use the drops as long as your doctor tells you to, even if your ear starts feeling better!. Stopping too soon can cause the infection to come back!. If your ear hurts, the doctor may suggest that a parent give you a children's pain medication!. This can help you feel better while you're waiting for the antibiotic to work!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes that is what you have!.!.my pop had the hole in his eardrum just like you !.!.you need to wear ear plugs when you swim!.!.!.i hate that squishy feeling I used to tilt my head and the water would finally come out!.!.!.!.please wear ear plugs at least on that ear to protect itWww@Answer-Health@Com

When I had swimmers ear it was just a pain in my ear that kinda led into my jaw and made it hurt when I ate!. None of the other stuff happened to me!. I'm guessing you have it though, but I'd go to the doctor to check!. They'll give you ear drops and that'll help it!. Hope you get better!Www@Answer-Health@Com
