isn’t just for swimmers.

Also known as , swimmer’s ear is an infection or irritation of the outer ear canal that often develops when moisture gets trapped in the ear. It can cause itching, pain, drainage, a blocked feeling, or decreased hearing.

Children and teens are commonly affected, but adults can get swimmer’s ear too, especially those who use hearing aids or earbuds, have excess earwax, or have sensitive skin conditions.

A few ways to help protect your ears:
• Keep ears as dry as possible after swimming or bathing
• Use earplugs when swimming
• Dry ears gently with a towel or hair dryer from a distance
• Skip the cotton swabs, which can irritate the ear canal and push wax deeper

If ear pain is severe, persistent, or accompanied by fever, Connecticut ENT Allergy & Sinus can help determine the cause and recommend the right treatment.

Conditions such as BPPV, labyrinthitis, and Ménière’s disease may cause symptoms including vertigo, dizziness, lightheadedness, blurred vision, or feeling like you might fall.

At Connecticut ENT Allergy & Sinus, our team evaluates balance concerns through a review of your medical history, physical and neurological examinations, and specialized testing to help determine whether an inner ear disorder may be contributing to your symptoms.
