Answers:
Absolutely do not go in swimming with swimmers ear. The infection must clear first. You could lose your hearing not to mention the extreme pain that goes with it.
Swimmers ear is an infection of the ear. Bacteria is growing inside your ear due to the pooling of water that has become stagnant and began to grow germs. The ear canal swells and the water cannot escape. You could end up in the hospital, in surgery with the doc placing tubes in your ears to let the infection drain. That would be if you were lucky enough to be able to get the infection in time. It could spread to other parts of your body.
