I have had water in my ear for 2 days?
will it come out by itself or will i need to go to doctor

can it do any lasting damage if i don't go to the doctor
                     




Tilly
You're in danger of an ear infection.
I would go visit your doctor to get some anti-biotics.

I don't know if you can get it yourself, but I have heard and tried using a blow dryer on my ears to dry them. It worked for me!

heat up a drop of olive oil on a tea spoon
pour it into your ear before you go to bed
cover your ear with a bit of cotton wool and
when wake the next morning it should all be gone

and remember to clean your ear

Was it through swimming ? If so yes it will eventually work its way free - if not you may want to check with your GP - maybe a ear infection ?

Hope you are "water free" soon

should go out by itself..its just swimmers ear i have never heard of it doing lasting damage


Natty DA REAL
In a serious answer there is one of those pumping tool that you can put in your ear, pump and it will take the water out.


cor blimey
no you blown your nose too hard it will settle in a few days time if its the same by Monday then id go the Dr's


jc2006
Stand on your head. Seriously. When I was younger I used to swim the whole summer and I would always get water in my ear.

Fluid in your ear COULD cause an infection. Try putting some rubbing alcohol on a q-tip and let one small drop drop into the canal. It should dry up the water. This practice is used a bunch for swimmer's ear. DRs also have ear drops for this.


♫Hania♫
i think theylle laugh if u go for that


dreams
it will sort itself out
go to bed with a small bit of cotton wool in your ear and try to sleep on that side :)

I always get water in my ear. what i do to get it out is stomp my left foot real hard and shake your head you could also take some ear drops that flushes the water out also but it could be an ear infection so if those two dont work i would say go to the doctor

It should come out, dont worry!!! If you feel unsure visit your GP

I've had that problem before. Best thing to do is go to the doctor. Because it could get worse. However there is some over the counter medicine that you can purchase at Wal-mart for swimmers ear.

No need to worry. It will only make your ear heavy for some time but it will sooner dry out.


Argothar
Have a trampoline or something soft and bouncy? Fall on it as hard as you can, or flip and land on your side, it should come out that's how I do it :)

Go get some Water Babies ear drops. Contains mostly alcohol and it will dry out your ears.

Your'e lucky - I've had water in the brain for years!!!

Anyway, pull the lobs of your ears and tilt your head - it should come out - if not its probably a bit of wax which has moved so get your ears syringed. And don't worry its not serious. xx


tshnobodysfool
Use some aurodry - you can get it from any place with a pharmacy usually and over the counter. Divers/swimmers use it.

get some hydrogen peroxide, pur a few drops in your ear, it'll have afizzing effect & really clears up wax etc in the ear, although I haven't tried it for water.
Have you tried hopping on your ear? (drop the ear witrh water facing the floor & hop on the same side leg, usually works for me).
Don't mess with ur ear too much, when I was little,people used to experiment with eveyrthing when I ha dear problems, some would blow cigarette smoke in my ear, some would cover it with heated towel etc...! it didn;t help!


James
ahhahaa.. hilarious..

you could possibly get an infection

but usually water in your ear dries out within a day
get it checked

Try this lie down on the side where the water went in and puch on it with you finger hold if for 5 seconds keep doing it it always happens to me and it comes out warm..

tilt your head and pour a little bit of alchol in your ear and let it be there for a minute and then let it out, after a minude use peroxide. that will do the trick and it wont damage your ear at all. thats what we use in out offce for ear irrigations, which a dr will do if you go anyways.

Don't worry it should go away soon. I've had water in my ear for a few days and then it just went away.

I don't believe it will cause any damage, but if it's still there in a week or so you should consult a doctor.
