Ear infection? swimmers ear?!
Question: Ear infection!? swimmers ear!?
Hey everyone, my boyfriend is having a terrible problem with his ear!. Two days ago (after his shower) his ear was clogged and he could hear "swooshing" form water in there!. We put swimmers ear drops in, and it did drain but it dodn't help completely!. He has been messing with it, popping it and putting pressure on it with his hand cupped and now it is really hurting him!. His jaw even hurts on that side!. The fluid that has been draining out has been clear, but today he had a cotton bud in and when he took it out it was yellowish!. Do you think this is an ear infection!? Swimmers ear!? Ruptured ear drum!? And any advice on how to make him feel better!?

Sounds like he has an ear infection!. If he still has water in there try using a q-tip dipped in Peroxide and it will absorb the water instantly!. Make sure he ear canal is not closing up on him, he will definitely need to see a doctor then!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Have him to lay on his side and pour a cap of peroxide down his ear!. It will bubble a little at first but he shouldn't feel a think!. If that doesn't work then go to your local urgent care and tell them he needs an ear levage!. This will basically drain the ear!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
It sounds like an ear infection!. He may want to see a doctor soon so you don't do anything that could make the infection worse!. I hope he feels better!
