What Causes Ear Pain After Playing In Water Park?

Day before yesterday i wnt to a water park I had a great time there But now. Im having a severe pain in both of my ears.. Im even not able to hear properly... ... When i was at park i took a lot of jumps into water where i could actually feel water enerting in my ear canal.. Like a flood into a hollow chamber.. At that time too i was unable to hear anything as clear as i do before. After Retur ing home i tried to clean my ear with a ear bud but it was too pain ful.. After which my grand ma told me to use a ear drop i dnt remember the name.. I used it 4 times till now. No improvement.. Im extremely worried wht to do... I wish this wont be a permanent thing : (

Hi, thanks for your query.
In my opinion, you might be having wax in your ear canal which has swollen causing ear pain and block. Once wax is removed, problem is solved.
Second probable cause can be ear infection, because of water entering the ear.
This is treated with penicillin antibiotics + anti inflammatory medicines for 5 to 7 days.
This needs clinical evaluation.
I would advise you to consult with the doctor and get evaluated properly.
Hope my answers have helped you. Thanks.
