Ear Popping

Triathlon Forum

I’ve noticed that my ears tend to plug when swimming now. And although I don’t exactly hear water sloshing around in there afterward (!), I do get a lot of popping and crackling sounds when I yawn, etc.

Just get used to this? Or am I on the road to something that I should prevent w/ ear plugs when in the water?

Get the ear plugs with baffles, and after your swim, either use something like “Auro-dry” or blow a hairdryer into the ears (low setting, and a bit away from the ear to avoid noise damage). That should do the trick.
