Lara: local notes for swimmer’s ear
Lara’s hotel strip is built around sandy beaches and big pools, so sun and pool-related problems are typical. On beach holidays, heat, sun and swimming can aggravate many conditions, so rest, drink water and tell the doctor what you have been doing.
Understanding swimmer’s ear
Otitis externa, known as swimmer’s ear, is inflammation or infection in the canal leading to the eardrum, often following water in the ear.
What can cause swimmer’s ear
Moisture trapped after a swim or shower softens the canal lining so germs can grow; swimming pools, the sea and cotton buds raise the chance.
Typical symptoms
- Ear pain that is worse when you touch or pull the ear
- Discharge
- A blocked feeling
How swimmer’s ear is treated
You will discuss symptoms with the doctor, receive care advice and ear drops if suitable; if there is no improvement you may be asked to have the canal examined in person. Depending on your case, the doctor may suggest antibiotic, antifungal or steroid ear drops, acidifying drops and painkillers.
- Take simple painkillers as directed on the pack
- Keep the ear dry until it heals
