I had never had ear problems until last year. I have seen 2 specialists and they told me it was "swimmers' ear". I don't swim and they reccomended I wear ear plugs while showering. I did this and it didn't help.
It constantly feels wet and itchy in there. Sometimes it swells, sometimes it is painful, sometimes it drains a fluid, sometimes it bleeds. There is constant ringing. It's driving me mad.
I've paid hundreds of dollars for drops to put in there. I've put alcohol in there. I've put paroxide in there. These things help, but if I stop, it comes right back.
A co-worker mentioned that I may be allergic to my pillow. I bought a new hypo-allergenic one, but nothing changed. I haven't changed my soap or shampoo or hairspray in years, so it's not that either.
I'm willing to try anything. Any suggestions?
