If none of the above helps me, I take a small piece of a tissue, roll it so that it is like a thick needle (or a thin Q-tips..) and carefully put it into my ear. Be careful and very cautious as you could hurt yourself as it's quite sharp. But this usually sucks out the liquid well. You may have to repeat it two or three times depending on the amount.\nBut again, be very careful and gentle not to hurt your eardrum!!!

Try not to close them. It'll hurt at the beginning but you'll get used to it in two days of swimming.

Here is a great way to prevent swimmers ear after you've cured it. Take an eye dropper, and fill it half way with white vinegar. Then fill it the rest of the way with rubbing alcohol. \n\nPut one fourth of the eye dropper full into each ear after swimming for about 10 seconds then let it drain out. This will dry out any excess water that might cause skimmer's ear.

If the ache is due to an eustachian tube blockage, you can solve your problem by taking an over the counter medication designed to help relieve sinus blockage/pressure.  To decide if this is your trouble, hold your nose and gently blow.  If you don't feel/hear the eardrum "pop", then the tubes are blocked, or if it hurts too much to try they are blocked.  If that doesn't work in a few days time, or you begin to run fever, you will need to see the doctor.\n  If the problem is due to swimmers ear, you can get a pain relief and cure at the local pharmacy, just ask for something for swimmer's ear.  To tell the difference between an outer and inner ear infection, try to pop the ears.  If they do pop, and the pain is primarily felt in the ear canal, it is likely swimmers ear.  You can also use a little warmed oil and dribble one or two drops in the ear to soothe it.\n  Warmth feels good on an earache, either via a heating pad or a warm washcloth.  You can warm one in the microwave and hold it against the ear that hurts.  Also blocking off the ear canal by laying on that side or putting a cotton ball just inside the ear, but not the canal, helps to block off drafts and deaden the sounds.\n  If you run a fever at any point, or the ear doesn't improve in 2-3 days, you really do need to see a doctor.   If the inner ear gets too badly infected or fills with fluid, it can cause the eardrum to burst.  That takes longer to heal, and can permanently affect your hearing.

Your hair is like a sponge. Keep your hair in good shape by always conditioning your hair. Before you get into the pool saturate your hair with fresh water. This will prevent your hair from absorbing the chlorinated water. When you're done rinse your hair and wash with dechlorinating shampoo. Wearing a swim cap also helps. If you do wear a swim cap, you can coat your wet hair with leave-in conditioner.

thats just something natural swim a little more since your body isn't used to the pool yet(being underwater) so just swim a little more OR it could be that your a little older now and your ears r more sensitive to chlorine?

Couple drops of rubbing alcohol will help evaporate the trapped water out of your ears.

Your mouth feels dry because you are doing most of your inhaling through your mouth when swimming. The constant flow of air dries out your mouth and throat. If you swim in a pool, keep a water bottle at one end and hydrate yourself regularly. You lose fluids while swimming, whether you realize it or not.

Make a solution of white vinegar and alcohol (equal parts).  Put a couple of drops in each ear when you get out of the pool.  It kills any bacteria and dries the water.

Dip Q-tips in rubbing alcohol and clean out your ears with them. The reason why you do this is because you need to break the surface tension of the water stuck in your ears, and rubbing alcohol contains properties capable of doing so.

Lie your head down with the ear containing the bug up and drop in some peroxide.  Continue dropping peroxide in until the bug either crawls out or if dead, floats out.

After swimming rinse out your suits thoroughly. Once at home wash them out with Woolite or any cleanser used for delicates. Dry them by putting it in a dry towel, and rolling them up to remove excess water, then air dry. Do not wring them out. This will wear the elastic bands in your suit. Ridding your suits of chlorine, salt, and/or elements will lengthen the life of your suit. If you have a multiple number of suits, I would suggest using one until it is no good. Once your suit is exposed to chlorine it starts to deteriorate. By exposing all your suits at one time, your suits will become unusable all about the same time, depending on how well you wash it out.

Put five drops of hydrogen peroxide in your ear and wait until it stops fizzing (you may have to do it twice) and then put a Qtip dipped in rubbing alcohol to get rid of the broken up residue.

heat up about a cup of salt in a frying pan - just keep stirring it around to get it hot.  Once it's hot, pour it into an old sock and place the sock on our ear (you may have to let it cool a minute or two)  The heat from the sock will soothe your pain and will clear the gunk in your ear
