How Can Water In The Ears Be Removed?

Hi, it feels as if I have water in one of mt ears for the past few days. There is no pain associated with this feeling except for the feeling of water inside of it at times. I seems to be more pronounced when I get up from sleeping. There is no noticeable hearing loss, but it feels like I have water in there. Sometimes when I chew and when I place my hand under my and push up my ear (from just below me ear lobe) I hear that scratchy noise that you hear when you have water in your ear. It almost sounds like a dirty transistor pot when you turn the volume knob on an radio. I ve had this for about a week or so and it s not getting any better. This morning it feels like it s getting worse.

Hello,
Welcom to
Healthcaremagic.com.

Water when enters ear will not remain there for many days but it is ear wax which dissolves in water and moves inside external auditory canal.

You need to get an anti-ear wax drops and put around ten drops inside the ear during sleeping time and sleep in opposite side, affected ear upwards. Keep the solution whole night in your ear and in morning use ear buds of cotton to clean it.

If this does not work though it does most of times,then you may need ear syringeing of water to flush it out, for that you need to visit a ENT spacialist.

Hope my answer will help you.
Regards
