medical advice

You don't have water in your ear anymore if you had it there at all. What you felt was a pressure injury transmitted to your ear drum from the 25 foot jump. It's possible you perforated your ear drum but the treatment for that is to simply wait until it heals (think of how many kids get tubes in their ears).

 

It's also possible you just rattled your inner ear and did not perforate the ear drum. Again, the treatment is pretty much to wait it out. If you don't continue to get better, then see your doc in a week. He'll look into your ear to see if you have a perf or if you have some inflammatory fluid in the inner ear (that can be treated easily).

 

For the love of god, DON'T PUT ALCOHOL IN YOUR EAR. If you have a perf, that alcohol is going to go to your inner ear and put you in a world of hurt.

Anyone who's anyone knows that the best way to get rid of water in your ear is....

 

light a Q-tip, put it in your ear, the heat burns up the water.

 

And to think, some people on this site wanted you to go to a doctor for a little water in your ear.

The blazing Q-tip is applied after he fills his ear with alcohol, right?
