Who Knew? Removing Water from Ear w/ These Strategies

A trip to the pool and your family's summer schedules is on a roll. The only hiccup? Water in the ear.  Here are some At Home Formulas you can try.



We tried #7 Lie down on your side with your ear facing down for a few minutes.

Then #2 Create a vacuum in your ear. Face the affected ear down on your palm and then use your palm to gently push in and out until water begins to come out.


Finally #1 Use a homemade solution of half rubbing alcohol and half white vinegar. In addition to helping your ears get rid of that extra water, this solution will also keep them from getting infected. Simply make an ear drop solution that is made up of 50% rubbing alcohol and 50% white vinegar and carefully use an ear dropper to drop several drops of the solution into the affected ear. Then, carefully drain it out. You can get the help of an adult to drop the solution into your ear for you. That did the trick. 


These are all simple solutions, and most people have white vinegar and rubbing alcohol on hand.

Have you tried any of these yourself? Do you have a go-to?
