Blocked ear after swimming?

Question

I have a clogged right ear due to water that got in since I went to the water park on Sunday. What should I do to unclog it? Should I wait for it to unclog naturally?

Hello Mrs, There are ear drops that can help reduce the amount of water that is "trapped" in the ear. The product in question is called Auro-Dri and is available in pharmacies without a prescription. It is used twice a day for 3 to 5 days. Your pharmacist can tell you how to apply it in person, it's easier :) If the situation worsens or persists for more than 5 days without improvement, I recommend consulting a doctor as a precaution. I remain available if you have any other questions! Tom Samaha, pharmacist
