A member asked:
I went swimming last week. my ear seems to be partially deaf and nose blocked. its 11 days and there's no improvement neither any pain should i now see a doctor or not panic yet ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No panic: No, I would not panic. Three most common causes are : water in ear, wax in ear, or ear infection. There are some good over the counter drops that can be used to clear water. In the US the most common brand is called “swimmers ear” and has an alcohol solution that dries out the water. If that does not work, may be wax or infection and would a general practitioner will be able take care of.
