Repeatedly getting swimmers ear - no swimming and ENTs give no answers (33f)
This has been an issue since I was a child. I never had the advocacy as a child, so I never went to the Dr’s for it.
As an adult I was told I didn’t have ear infections, since I didn’t swim (military).
Now, as a civilian, I just get treated with ear drops and never given an answer. I’ve seen two ENTs, but by the time I can get an appointment, the ear issue is gone. I wash my hair with ear plugs and try to be cautious. I’ve just had back-to-back infections - one in each ear. What do I need to do?
