If you suffer from recurrent ear infections or experience the sensation of water in your ears after a visit to the pool, we recommend wearing ear plugs when you go swimming. Otitus externa (swimmer’s ear) is a common infection of the outer ear canal that causes inflammation and discharge. It can be caused a build up of bacteria due to moist conditions caused by exposure to water.
Swim ear plugs are designed to stop water entering the ear, helping to prevent infection. We offer a wide range of swim plugs, including generic fit rubber and custom moulded silicone.
If you are a light sleeper, live next to a busy road, or your partner snores, you may benefit from a pair of sleep ear plugs. At Castle Hearing, we offer a variety of sleep plugs that are designed to be comfortable enough to sleep in whilst effectively blocking our noise, ensuring a good night’s sleep without interruption.
