They are customized for your ears to ensure a tight, snug fit in the ear canal. Swimmer\u2019s earmolds aren\u2019t just for swimmers; they\u2019re useful for a wide variety of water activities. Custom swim molds are used for activities such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Boating.<\/li>\n<li>Jet skiing.<\/li>\n<li>Canoeing and kayaking.<\/li>\n<li>Rafting.<\/li>\n<li>Paddle boarding.<\/li>\n<li>Swimming.<\/li>\n<li>Bathing and showering.<\/li>\n<li>Attending waterparks.<\/li>\n<li>Doing water aerobics.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Custom swim molds offer protection from several major ear-related health problems, including outer ear infections and surfer\u2019s ear. Ear infections are a problem for patients of all ages, though they\u2019re particularly prevalent in children.<br \/>\nOtitis externa, or an outer ear infection, is also known as swimmer\u2019s ear. Outer ear infections can have several different causes, but water exposure is one of the most prominent.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Otitis Externa or Swimmer\u2019s Ear:\u00a0<\/strong>This is an infection of the outer ear that can cause itching, swelling, drainage and pain. Swimmer\u2019s ear almost always needs to be treated with topical antibiotic eardrops. While this condition isn\u2019t infectious between people, infected water in swimming pools and other water areas is its most common cause. Swimmer\u2019s ear is completely preventable with the use of well-fitting custom swim plugs.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Exostosis or Surfer\u2019s Ear:\u00a0<\/strong>Exostosis is the name for a condition that causes abnormal bone growth in the ear canal. This bone growth is usually caused by water exposure in combination with cold temperatures and wind \u2013 conditions that are commonly experienced in many outdoor water sports. Surfer\u2019s ear can result in a blocked ear canal and ear infections. It develops over time, so precautionary measures like swim molds are the best protection for water sport athletes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Call <span class=\"company-name \">Comprehensive ENT<\/span> at <a href=\"tel:+18042284480\" class=\"phone \"> <span class=\"phNum\">(804) 228-4480<\/span><\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Swim molds are specialized earplugs crafted from waterproof silicone that create a tight seal, which blocks water from flowing past the outer ear.
