How do you get water out of you ear?

How to get water out of my ear?

  • Okay so about 5 days ago i dipped my finger in some water and cleaned out my ear with it (sort of gross, yes) And ever since ive had water in my ear and it seems to not come out. I can hear it. I tried rubbing alcohol and while it cleaned my ear quite tremendously.. it didnt seem to do the job. WHAT DO I DO?

  • Answer:

    1. Pour a few drops of water into a dropper. Turn the head so the affected ear is facing up. Drop some water from the dropper into your affected ear. Wait two or three seconds, then flip your head quickly so the affected ear now faces the ground. Repeat the process until all the water has drained out of your ear. 2.Prepare a mixture of half alcohol and half vinegar. Put two or three drops of this mixture into the affected ear. The mixture should dry up the water in a few minutes. 3. Sleep with the affected ear facing the surface of your pillow. After a few minutes, the force of gravity may pull the water out 4. Dry up the water in your ear using a hair dryer on a low setting. Take care not to hold the hair dryer too close or to burn yourself 5. Use over-the-counter antiseptic eardrops. Shake two or three drops into your ear, then turn your head so the affected ear is facing downward. The water should come out with the eardrops 6. Consult your doctor if water remains in your ear no matter what you try on your own.

After swimming and I have water in my ear I take a shower and try to get a little more water in my ear so that case when you tilt your head instead of having a tiny drop to get out you have more water which gives it more pull so it will fall out together.
