Water in my ear and it won't come out!!?!
Question: Water in my ear and it won't come out!!.?
I sleep all night primarily on my right side, and for the past 2 days when i wake up i can feel water in my right ear and i can hear it in there. i tried shaking it out and it wont come out!!! it is driving me insane, because after i am up and about for a little while it goes way back into my ear and i can't hear it moving anymore but today my ear hurts a little. (this may be my imagination since i know there is water in there) but i am worried if i don't find a way to get it out i am going to end up with an ear infection. Help!!Health Question & Answer

I would highly doubt it's bugs. Your symptoms sound just like an ear infection to me. I get ear infections every year, and they get really bad FAST. The "water" is actually fluid behind your eardrum. The pain starts as that fluid pushes against the ear drum. Mine almost ruptured last time it got infected b/c I waited until the pain was so bad I couldn't sleep. Please don't do that - get it checked out soon. Ear infections don't clear up on their own. The doctor will give you antibiotics and within 24 hours it will feel normal again. As much as it feels like water, it's not. And not bugs either. Health Question & Answer
At the night put 2 drops of clean ( new bottle ) olive oil or baby oil in your ear. Stay 20_30 minutes with that side staying up. Then at night, put a towel on your pillow and lie with that side facing the bed., water, wax everything will gently flow out.

Most over the counter swimmer's ear medications are mostly alcohol. My advice is to carefully pour rubbing alcohol in your ear, let it sit for a few minutes, and drain it out. The alcohol has a drying effect that will help dry out your ear. You might have to do this twice a day for a few days, but it will work. My husband used to have bad problems with his ears, and after some research, this is what we did.Health Question & Answer
I once had that problem. I went to a doctor who had me fill up my mouth with as much water as it would hold, cover my ears tightly with my hands, then swallow the water all at once. It worked. And I paid big bucks for that.Health Question & Answer
