Swimmers ear

Lala said:
I think I have a bit of it. I’ve bought my own Otex syringe kit as GP surgeries don‘t syringe ears anymore 😳 I self syringe once a week and quite enjoy it now 🤣
It definitely clears them out for a few days.
I used to power shower my ears to clean them but that’s the worst thing you can do apparently and might be what brought it on initially. They recommend ear plugs for the bath and shower with swimmers ear.
I’m not a GP though and just muddle through stuff like this so it’s probably best to ask your GP.

Good luck 👍

The reason GPs no longer syringe ears is due to some research by the Egyptian based Canopic Institute; their jarring research found that the syringing of ears by-passes assumed blocks and removes part of the brain.

Explains so, so much LaLa :)

Power showering the ear, however, is recommended by Rentokil in Knobberville as it swooshes out the detritus by entering the left ear and jeeting out of the right ear (or vice versa) as there is nothing inbetween. Side effects are said to be over-flamed nostrils and an uncontrollable tick that manifests as shouting "BIG FAT BOO"

Don't even start about ears and cotton wool buds...

Yeah, it's one of many services that have been cut from GPs and walk-in centres.

I am pretty sure that there is a private company on Highfield Road called SINE Ear Care which offers this service

Yep went there a couple of years ago -it was on Squires Gate Industrial Estate then. Sorted my ear problem so well worth it if problem persists.

Good, it will probably work quite quickly.

Prescription is otomize spray, 1 spray 3 times a day. Used it twice so far today and I think it's definitely helping

No antibiotics in the spray, contains steroids to help with the inflammation, assume that means the infection will sort itself out (or at least I hope it will!) which us good to know

Argh, right, that’s what they give me about twice a year when I have a flare up. It’s good stuff 👍
