What is Earol Swim?

What is Swimmer's Ear?

Simmer's ear, also known as otitis externa, is usually caused by a bacterial infection, although the condition can also be caused by irritation, fungal infections, and allergies.

Repeated exposure to water in the ear creates an ideal environment for bacteria to grow, making the ear canal more vulnerable to infection.

Swimmer’s ear can cause pain, itchiness, and discharge in the ears. In some cases, swimmer's ear can cause hearing loss and, in rare cases, malignant otitis externa.

You can avoid swimmer's ear, and other ear infections, by keeping your ears clean and dry. 

How does Earol Swim Work?

Earol Swim works by covering the ear canal with an antibacterial, water-resistant barrier that prevents the spread of infection and irritation when swimming.

The protective barrier Earol Swim provides can last for more than 6 hours. 

How do I use Earol Swim?

Use the medicine once in both ears before going swimming.

Before using, heat the bottle in the palm of your hand and shake the bottle well.

Prime the spray bottle by spraying it a few times into the air in front of you, until the spray is consistent.

While priming the bottle, do not point the spray nozzle at your face or anyone else.

1. Lift the upper ear upwards and backwards.
2. Hold the bottle in an upright position with the nozzle aimed into the ear canal.
3. Spray it once or twice in your ear.
4. Repeat procedure for the opposite ear.
5. Once finished, remove the actuator button and rinse it in hot water before placing it back on the actuator.

Do not share your Earol Swim with anybody else. This can help prevent the spread of infections.

What should I do if I forget to use Earol Swim Tea tree oil spray when I should?
