Causes Of Swimmers Ear
-
Homeopathy offers very effective treatment for swimmer’s ear.
Homeopathic remedies boost the body’s self healing mechanism to fight with
the bacterial infection which is causing swimmers’ ears and bring natural
recovery in such cases.
-
Remedies relieve the symptoms including pain in ear,
itching in ear and fullness sensation in ear. Yhey also help to reduce the
ear discharges in these cases.
-
The most common cause of swimmer’s ear is a bacteria
that enters the ear canal. Less commonly it can arise from fungal or
viral agents.
-
Moisture in the ear, depletion of ear wax and breaks in the
skin that lines the ear canal predisposes a person to swimmer’s ear. Ear wax
isa defense agent of the ears that keep them clean and fight off germs to
prevent infection. This wax creates a thin film inside the ear that repels
water and is mildly acidic that prevents flourishing of bacteria in the ear.
But excess moisture in the ear or scratching ear canal while cleaning
can reduce the protective wax and cause breaks in skin that causes
bacterial growth.
-
Factors that put a person at risk of swimmer’s ear
include swimming including in water highly infested with bacteria or
excessive sweating that causes moisture in the ear and can allow the
bacteria to grow.
-
Harsh cleaning of the ear canal with ear buds, hair pins,
keys etc. and wearing hearing aid, using headphones that can cause trauma
and break in delicate skin lining the inside of the ear canal that can lead
to a bacteria infection.
Symptoms Of Swimmer's Ear
-
Initially the symptoms of swimmer’s ear are mild but if not
treated in time they tend to become severe.
-
The symptoms include itching in the ear, pain in ear and
drainage of fluid from ear. The intensity of itching varies from mild to
intense as per the severity of case. The pain also varies in intensity from
mild discomfort to severe pain. The intensity keeps increasing from mild to
moderate to severe as the infection advances.
-
In case of severe infection the pain is very intense and can
radiate to face, head or neck. The fluid draining from ear can be very
slight to excessive. It can be clear odorless, or pus.
-
There is redness in the ear and the outer ear may also be
swollen and hot. Feeling of fullness inside your ear, muffled or decreased
hearing may also arise. In advanced stage fever and swelling in lymph nodes
of neck can occur.
-
Children are more prone to get outer
ear infections because they have smaller
ear canal as compared to adults that cause difficulty in proper drainage of
fluid out from their ears. Children who spend excessive time in water are
more at risk.
