Can swimming give you an inner ear infection?

Yes, swimming can give you an inner ear infection. I used to have them while I was swimming. But I got a cure for that, and today my grandparents use them. You can buy them at an ear doctor. What they are are little squishy balls that go inside the ear, not to deep, and when he/she uses them in the water, it will help and also keep water from coming in. This was a big problem for me when I was younger. There are a variety of methods that swimmers' use to try and prevent ear infections from happening. Some of them buy ear drops, others use ear plugs, the courageous try home remedies, and worst of all... some do the unthinkable and give up swimming altogether. While these methods work for some, many divers dislike one or more of these options. The most common method is the use of ear drops. The only real problem with ear drops is that they not only kill the bacteria, they also eliminate just about everything that is good in a healthy ear. The earwax is there to protect the ear and it gets flushed out with the use of ear drops containing isopropyl alcohol. This isn't always the case, but in many cases the repeated use of ear drops leaves the ear canal vulnerable until the natural environment can replace itself back.
