When I woke up this morning, it seemed like my ear was "clogged" but it definitely wasn't. I found out later that it was just swelled up like a bad balloon about to pop. Last time I had this problem, it resulted in swimmer's ear the next day...and tomorrow is Christmas eve. Then the next day is Christmas day, of course, and no doctor offices will be opened.
What can I do for it to prevent an ear infection to actually come? I know how to treat swimmers ear without going to the doctor's, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem...but I want to try and prevent it so I don't get the horrific pain on my favorite holiday.
Thanks and happy holidays
How can it be a sinus infection if its my ear and not my nose? I know they are connected and such, but I looked up the symptoms of a sinus infection online, and it doesn't mention anything about ear swelling..
Ahh wait. I see sinus ear infections, but I don't have any of those symptoms either..
I really am convinced it is swimmers ear because I did just get done with swimming at school...
