From personal experience, I would advise against using vinegar or alcohol type solutions if you are conducting diving. The only time I had a (double) ear infection was on a diving holiday to the Maldives, where I had taken a commercial ear drying 'protective' solution (available off the shelf in dive centers).
The harsh liquid basically irritated by ear canals and stripped them of protective wax.
Use it if you will be out of the water for a week afterwards...or if you actually have a diagnosed ear infection.... but do not use it if you plan dives within the days afterwards.
Not a medical opinion....just personal experience after 16 years, 4000+ dives and one occurance of ear infection....
