Yes. It totally is. But what kind of medical advice do you think you're going to get from a bunch of bass players.

you are SO right .... silly me
Worst possible thing you can do....
Take Sudafed for decongesting those eustachian tubes and then you might try some Ocean Drops. I have always had swimmers ear, but not in salt water...just pools.
Good luck....maddening feeling...
I got an appointment with my ear/nose/throat doctor but not until next week!!! Hopefully I can cope until then,
I think you are missing the sarcasm that is running through this thread in an entirely unsubtle manner!
Oh yeah! Hang up side down off a Soloflex and chug a beer!
That'll do it!
Soloflex... totally worthless POJunk useful only for hanging clothes and drinking alcohol upside down. The ear relief is just an added benefit!

What was that. Pardon!!??
In the US, my English friend we mostly only say "pardon" during court proceedings or after a fart. The correct thing to say, although not nearly as polite, would have been....
WHAT?!!!?!?!?!?!?!
How about a poke in the eye with a sharp stick...
well for the love of god if you're not gonna use hydrogen peroxide than at least pour some coke in your ear and lay on your side until your appointment with the ear specialist.
Well, I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that is administered up the nose not in the ear.
hahahah, maki, you are offically my favorite person on TB. just wanted to let the world know that...
But what I ahve found that works (because I am a swimmer) is to forcefully headband to one side IE if the water is in the right ear. Headbang to the right. It will come out after a minute or two.
Some music to do that will help that is Bring me the horizon, broadcast the nightmare, or any other metal that you prefer.
Ok well I've been a competitive swimmer for 5 years, and I have had A LOT of experience with this problem. The trick is to kind of like duck your head to the side real quick, then jerk it back up again. This just gets the water out, it's worked for me and other thousands of times.
