Ugh I need to get earplugs for swimming. This is ow

I got some water trapped in my ear for a little while, and now it seems to have caused an ear infection

This probably explains part of the feeling crappy for the past couple of days

Me Then: I'm sure it'll wear off if I get more sleep and drink more water!!!
Me Today:

if you get water in your ears pour a little rubbing alcohol in, that usually helps me (I get horrible vertigo from an inner ear issue if I get fluid in my ears, but also can't wear ear plugs b/c inner ear issue)

I will have to try that if it happens again

My ears perpetually hate me

ordered earplugs too

I use stuff like this to clear my ears if I get water stuck in my ears when swimming.

Oh that sounds wonderfully helpful. I am new to being able to swim all the time again, so I no longer have a lot of the stuff that I used to take having for granted, sob.
