People who are more prone to ear infections may benefit from taking preventative precautions. A swimming cap can help prevent water from entering your ears. If you’re feeling comfortable, try wearing earplugs to protect your ears from water exposure. Seeking guidance from your doctor or healthcare provider on additional preventive measures might be beneficial and suited to your unique requirements.

Regular handwashing with soap and running water is an excellent strategy to prevent the spread of germs that cause colds and ear infections in both children and adults. To reduce the risk of illness, wash your hands frequently, especially after using the restroom, handling food, before eating, and coughing, sneezing, or blowing your nose.
