Swimmers Ear... or not?!
Question:
Swimmers Ear... or not?
It might be siwmmers ear but the pain is further down the ear canal and not at the beginning. it doesnt hurt when i touch the start of the ear canal but hurts when i exert inner pressure sometimes due to facial expressions. Any idea what it is? it might have been caused when i jabbed q-tips in there to get some water out that i couldn't but couldnt get it so i went to sleep and i woke up with pain in my ear.
Answers:
It may have started as swimmer's ear or an inner ear infection of some sort, but you may have damaged your eardrum with that Q-tip. You need to go see a doctor A.S.A.P. This is nothing to mess around with. Delaying proper treatment could result in hearing loss.
