Are the symptoms for swimmers ear fullness in the ear? and what can be done about it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Swimmers ear: certainly can cause fullness with reduction hearing. There is often pain and discharge as well. The ear canal is often visibly swollen. if your ear feels plugged, but not irritated, then it could be simply blocked by wax or water, and may simply need flushed. The doctor can quickly tell what you need by taking a look.
