I get water in my ears very easily, and it is difficult to get out. this rarely happens to my friends. is it normal for it to happen so often?

Normal-ish: We all get water in our ears when we swim or bathe. That is normal. You are experiencing water getting stuck in your ears. It may be due to the shape of your ear canal or an over abundance of ecru men (ear wax). The best advice is to see an ENT and get checked out. That doctor could tell you about your anatomy and offer some strategies for getting the water out.
