Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Yes eczema in ear can cause pain in ear and referred pain to the jaw.

Swimming pool may contain bleaching powder in it which may cause allergy to the sensitive part of the body in certain individuals.

I suspect that you are having allergy to. Please take the medication like tab. cetrizine and low dose steroid like tab. cetrizine. Please take above medications under your doctors guidance.

You can use eardrops like ciprofloxacin to prevent secondary infection.

Please maintain good hygiene as it is equally important as taking antibiotics.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
