I know this is a super weird question, but please bear with me!! 

 

So 4 days ago I was swimming in the pool (On holiday in Spain) and some water got stuck in both of my ears. My right ear was more effected by it and the left wasn't really. Anyway, my right ear is really really sore. Everytime I yawn, sneeze, swallow or cough my ear pops and it hurts like a motherfucker. However, I googled what I may or may not have (I'm not dying, just yet) it said I has swimmers ear, where the ear canal gets red and swollen. I've got this spray thing to put into my ear and I am taking painkillers also. Is there any other remedy to help me get rid of it? Its so annoying and painful :((((

I actually had this like a month ago. I don't know if this is safe, but every morning and every night I would put hydrogen peroxide in the affected area, let that bubble for about 5 minutes, get it all out, then take a q-tip and put isopropyl alcohol on it and swab it in and around my ear. It hurt like a bitch but after doing that for 4-5 days it fixed it.
