Fish dont have ears - protect your ears from water.
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
