About swimmer’s ear
Swimmer’s ear (otitis externa) is an infection or inflammation of the outer ear canal, frequently after water has been trapped in the ear.

Typical symptoms
- A blocked feeling
- Discharge
- Muffled hearing
- Ear pain that is worse when you touch or pull the ear
- Itching inside the ear
