It is not only Swimmers that suffer from the effects
of water in the ear, as a simple shower or bath will
do the trick of accumulating the disease know as
Swimmers Ear.
Recently a family members child aged 1 and a half
ended up in hospital with an ear infection that
originated from a simple pleasant bath in a clean
bath with clean water, so how would he have then
develop an ear infection? The answer is simple Water
in the ear. Smaller children have a deeper external
ear canal than adults and it is easy for water to
get trapped there. This external ear canal
straightens out when we grow older. Prevention is
the best protection.
The last thing you want to happen is being on
holiday and having ear problems mainly due to
water in the ear that can escalte to a bacteria or
fungus and eventually ear infection in children or
adults. Prevent these things from
happening Aqua Ear is a natual combination that can
be used for all ages young and old.
Surfers and Ocean swimmers Being in the Ocean with
all the debree that is some times washed up on our
shores can enter the canal and cause damage. Surfers
are usually in the water for hours at an end, they
sometimes use surfing suits to mainly protect them
from cold weather, they put loads of colourful sun
block on their noses and cheeks against sunburn but
do they protect their ears?
Like said before not every-one is sensitive to
fluids in ear, but it usually takes just one
experience of ear ache to realize that you need to
protect your ears more against swimmers ear.
So how would an adult get Swimmers Ear?
Water that is contaminated facilitates fungi or
bacteria to the ear canal.
Scratching the ears using sharp or dirty
fingernails, pens, toothpick and keys may cause a
tear in delicate tissues of the ear canal which
could lead to infection.
Chemical irritants may make way inside the ear canal
and cause irritation. Example, Hairsprays, shampoos,
hair dyes.
Cleaning ears removing to much of our natural ear
wax, can prevent the earwax from doing its job like
stopping dirt particles from doing harm. Diabetes
could make earwax too alkaline inviting bacteria and
other infections.
If the ear canals are narrower than normal, the
water can't drain as effectively causing water
retention in the ear.
Swimming, bathing or living in a moist environment
also causes moisture in the ear.
Exposure to any infectious organism from swimming in
polluted water is another known cause of swimmers
ear. If you have suffered before with fluid in the
ear, or your child has, you need to be taking notice
and protect them before it happens again Earache is
one of the most painful pains that there is, there
is nothing like it so if your child has suffered
with any ear problems you need to take action
immidiately, you do not want to end up giving your
child or yourself antibiotic from a negelcted
situation of Fluids in the ear that have escalated
to an infection
