I currently have water stuck in my ear after going swimming and I don’t understand how it’s possible.
I understand the principle of water surface tension but I have previously had a camera in my ear and it doesn’t look like water should ever get stuck in there!
I have stupidly put both tissue and a q tip in my ear (being careful not to get too close to the eardrum) and nada…..still stuck in there. Is infuriating.

Was on swim team, junior lifeguard for years, and eventually moving in to being an actually lifeguard for even longer. So I’ve had my fair share of water clogged ears. The thing that has always worked for me to get water out is to tilt your head towards the ear that has the water in it, like over that shoulder, then stand on the leg on the same side and jump a few times.
