A member asked:
I put vinegar and water in my sons ear and he said it won't come out. what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
why?: A mixture of vinegar and rubbing alcohol can be useful to prevent swimmers ear. Check proportions on line. At this point 3 drops of rubbing alcohol will help evaporate vinegar/water mixture. This should v be done only if there is no underlhying problem. If there is an external ear infection or pain then see your pediatrician.
