Hi,

I'm 14 and my hearing is perfect and I've never had any trouble with my ears except for an ear infection or two. But yesterday I had a bath and I got water in both of my ears and I got it all out, but my left ear is gone weird. It feels a little numb and clogged up when there's no water (that I can hear when I move) in it. This bothered me all of last night and now it's the next day morning and I'm starting to get an earache and nothing has changed. I haven't messed with it except patting and hitting it a couple times, trying to see if there's still water in it.

It's becoming very bothersome and I really want to know what's going on. Any help is much appreciated.

Because you are 14, you need to tell this to a parent or guardian.
It could just be water that didn't get out, or you could have pounded on your head too much, or you could have a coincidental infection again, and so have to see a doctor. Taking a bath shouldn't require any special means to get the water out, so you may have an odd shaped ear canal that lends itself to problems.
