I am new to this board and new to diving (currently taking ceritification course) so sorry about this newbie question.
I just had my 3rd class last night. We did a lot of underwater exercises last night and after class I noticed my ears felt like they still had water in them. I went to bed hoping they would clear up, but the next morning it pretty much felt the same. I proceeded to immediately get some Swimmers ear drops medication at my local drug store and applied a few drops to each. They seem better, but I still have a little dizzyness at times and doesn't feel 100% normal.
Do I need to go see a doctor or is there maybe something else I can do to help. I did also notice that while performing an ascending exercise, I think I might of gotten a slight case of vertigo when I reached the surface. I basically felt some dizzyness, but it only lasted a few seconds. However, I wonder if this incident is related to my ear situation.
I know this has probably been asked many times before on this board, but I'm just a little concerned since I already applied the drops. Do I maybe need to do something else to help the situation? Any suggestions?
