A homemade remedy and cure for swimmer's ear can be mixed from a solution of half rubbing alcohol and half vinegar.
The alcohol combines with water in the ear and then evaporates, removing the water, while the acidity of the vinegar keeps bacteria from growing.
Apply a couple of drops of solution in each ear.
While the symptoms can be mild in the beginning, untreated swimmer's ear can get worse and cause serious problems.
The good news is that swimmer's ear usually goes away pretty quickly with treatment.
Swimmer's ear is often brought on by water that remains in your ear, creating a moist environment that aids the growth of bacteria.
Putting fingers, cotton swabs or other objects in your ears also can lead to swimmer's ear by damaging the thin layer of skin lining your ear canal.
Swimmer's ear is also known as otitis externa.
Hydrogen Peroxide can and will get rid of water that's trapped in your ear caused by swimmer's ear and you just take an ear dropper and drop a few drops of hydrogen peroxide into your ear until it fizzles and then tilt your head so that the water can drain out of your ears.
Rubbing Alcohol and Vinegar works better though for getting rid of swimmer's ear since the Rubbing Alcohol will actually evaporate the water in your ear and the Vinegar will kill off any bacteria in your ear that may be there from the water.
Another thing you can do to get rid of Swimmer's ear is to use a blow dryer on the low heat setting to help dry out the water and moisture in your ear.
