How do you remove water from your ear?
I got back from vacation a week ago and I STILL have water in my ear from swimming!
I feel silly going to the Dr about it as I'm not in pain at all but every now and then I notice it..it's weird.
WWYD?

I do the rubbing alcohol and vinegar one on my kids in the summer to prevent swimmers ear. We haven't gotten it yet (and I got it all the time as a kid!).

I jump up and down on one leg with my head tilted to the side with the water in it It's always worked for me.

Create a suction with your palm and then kind of pump on your ear while keeping your head tilted. I get fluid in my ear all the time in the Summer, and that seems to work the best for me.

The only thing that worked for me was the drops they sell at the drugstore.
