<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nDid you know that your ears can get sunburned too? The skin on your ears is incredibly sensitive, and excessive sun exposure can lead to uncomfortable sunburns and long-term damage. Here\u2019s a pro-tip for you \u2013 when you\u2019re applying sunscreen, don\u2019t forget your ears! Smear on a dollop of that SPF30+ onto your lobes to keep them safe and sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Beware of the Water<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Swimming is a summer staple, but water entering your ears can cause a condition known as swimmer\u2019s ear. This infection occurs when water is trapped in your ear canal, creating a breeding ground for bacteria. Prevent this by gently drying your ears with a towel after swimming. Tilt your head to the side to help the water escape, but remember to never stick anything in your ear canal! If water persistently stays in your ear, don\u2019t worry \u2013 just give us a call, and our hearing professionals will help you out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Guard Against Loud Noises<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Summer concerts and firework displays are fantastic fun, but they can also be loud. Very loud. Noise-induced hearing loss is one of the most common forms of hearing damage. Protect your ears with earplugs when you\u2019re planning to attend loud events. Our hearing practice provides custom-fit earplugs that are perfect for such occasions, providing the utmost comfort while ensuring you can still enjoy the sounds of summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
