Good video

I've had my fair share of ear infections and perforated both ears on several occasions since I started diving back in 1985, but I'm still diving.
My first ear infection though wasn't until some time in the mid 2000s ruining a few dive trips in the Philippines, Malaysia and Indonesia.
Nowadays I'm super cautious.
1. Predive I use
Earol
2. I wear the
IST mask with ear covers, more to prevent anything from entering than really keeping my ears dry, as they still get slightly damp unless you have a haircut like Kim Jong Un.
3. Finally after the day's diving my home made ear beer (75% alcohol and 25% white vinegar - which does smell).
Currently only my right ear is producing wax when I'm not diving but not sufficient to make candles
Will look to add some glycerin or olive oil / tea tree oil to my current ear beer to reduce the post-treatment dryness.
Oh and it you are half a bee then perhaps change your name to Eric
