FIRST IF YOU HAVE EAR PAIN, HEARING LOSS OR FEVER CONSULT YOUR MD!
(THIS IS MY DISCLAIMER ALWAYS GO TO THE DOCTOR IF YOU ARE SICK)
Of course the easiest way to remove water is to shake your head to the side with the water if that fails then take 1-2 drops of isopropyl Alcohol (rubbing alcohol) and put them into the ear canal, this works wonders especially after a good swim.
NOW IF IT IS AN EAR WAX PROBLEM...THAT IS A WHOLE DIFFERENT THING AND SOMETIMES THE WATER GETS STUCK BEHIND THAT WAX
If you have a build-up of ear wax that doesn't go away on its own, you may need to use ear drops or you may need to have your ears syringed. These simple treatments are usually painless.
Ear syringing usually helps to get rid of the ear wax, but it can have side effects. For example, it can cause infections in the outer part of your ear. Or the water squirted into your ear can damage your eardrum. But these problems are rare.
Ear drops that contain wax softeners are often used to break up the ear wax.
Your doctor may ask you to use a wax softener for a few days before your ears are syringed. But there hasn't been any good research to show that wax softeners help.

Wow I have to comment because Nancy is my Aunt and she is an amazing person, mother etc. You girls need to learn some RESPECT!!!! Get over yourselves and most importantly don't go off on her because she is worried about her son, wait until you have children of your own and you will learn! I am just as worried about Chris, my cousin, whom I have known a hell of a lot longer then you have, as she is. Stop butting into business you most likely know nothing about and if you do realize it is her job as a parent to check on him. You also have no idea what she has gone through this year and to still do all that she does proves that she loves her family more than anything!!!!! LOVE YOU LOTS AUNT NANCY YOU ARE BEYOND THE GREATEST!
I'm glad you have a blog, Nancy. I love you so much! Thank you for always being there for me and being the worlds greatest aunt! I hope someday I can be a mother who is as great as you are to your sons. I know growing up you and Layne were like my second set of parents. I always had such a great time with you two. Every visit to the Perkins home was a blast! I thank God everyday for my functional loving family. I can't wait until we are all together in Heaven with Dad.. Rockin out around a campfire and singing songs together. I love you, Layne, Chris and Nate(and Roxy!) SOOOOO much!
On the topic of water in the ear I like the old tip your head to one side and hop up and down (Sorry i thought I would try to lighten the mood :0) Did it work?
Yes Brynn that works! LOL
