Swim Plugs

Swim plugs were designed to protect the ear canal and middle ear system from water entry. They are appropriate for patients with chronic swimmers ear, perforated ear drums or modified middle ear systems. A swim plug can be utilized by anyone wishing to maintain a relatively dry ear canal while bathing, surface swimming or showering. 


A swim plug is not recommended for patients who are interested in scuba diving or breath-hold diving below 6 feet. There are special swim plugs that have been designed to keep cold water and air out of the ear canal but allows conversation to be heard while inserted. This plug was designed for surfers but can be utilized by anyone enjoying skiing, biking, jogging etc.
