It may sound strange, but your ears react strongly to what is going on around you: pollen in the spring, bathing water in the summer, inclement wind in the fall and cold air in the winter. Each season has its own ear challenges. In this blog, I\u2019ll take you through the four seasons and tell you what you can do to keep your ears healthy \u2013 whether it\u2019s hay fever, ear infections or just that pesky <a href=\"https:\/\/www.horendgoed.nl\/en\/hearing-problems\/help-i-have-itchy-ears\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">itch<\/a> in your ear canal.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lente-hooikoorts-en-verstopte-oren\">Spring: hay fever and stuffy ears<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spring is known for blooming flowers, singing birds and \u2026 sneezing fits. Hay fever can be quite a game-changer. The pollen floating everywhere in the air not only causes watery eyes and a runny nose, but can also affect your ears.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hoe-werkt-dat\">How does that work?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Eustachian tube \u2013 the connection between your nose, throat and ear \u2013 can become swollen from hay fever. As a result, fluid doesn\u2019t flow out as well and you may experience an oppressive or full feeling in your ears. Some people even experience temporary hearing loss or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.horendgoed.nl\/en\/hearing-problems\/all-about-tinnitus\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">tinnitus<\/a> during a hay fever attack.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-wat-kun-je-doen\">What can you do?<\/h3>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Use nasal sprays or antihistamines (after consulting your doctor).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rinse your nose regularly with saline solution to flush away pollen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep windows closed as much as possible on high pollen days.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consider custom-made <strong>earmuffs or earplugs<\/strong> if you spend a lot of time outdoors to protect your ears from pungent pollen combined with wind.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-zomer-zwemmen-vakantie-en-oorontstekingen\">Summer: swimming, vacation and ear infections<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Summer is the season of the pool, the sea and vacation destinations where water fun takes center stage. But water and ears are not always the best of friends. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-zwemmersoor\">Swimmer\u2019s Ear<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A common problem in summer is <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zwemdopje.nl\/zwemmersoor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">swimmer\u2019s ear<\/a><\/strong>: a painful inflammation of the ear canal caused by water left behind in which bacteria feel at home. It often begins with itching or a slight pressing sensation, and can progress to a major ear infection. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-vakantieproblemen\">Vacation Problems<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During air travel in the summer vacations, the following also plays a role <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zwemdopje.nl\/barotrauma\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">barotrauma<\/a><\/strong> also plays a role: earache caused by air pressure differences.

That often pushes earwax further in. Rather, opt for a safe alternative such as the <strong>Bebird ear cleaner with camera<\/strong>, which allows you to clean your ears in a controlled manner at home.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Protect your hearing<\/strong>: whether you go to a festival in the summer or to the fair in the fall, always bring earplugs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Listen to your body<\/strong>: in case of pain, pressure or hearing loss, it is smart to consult a doctor rather than sit it out.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Keep your resistance up<\/strong>: healthy diet, adequate sleep and exercise will make your body (and therefore your ears) more resistant to infections.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-samengevat\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ear problems are often seasonal: from hay fever in spring to ear infections in winter. Each season requires a different way to protect and care for them. The good news is that you can do a lot yourself to keep your ears healthy. Consider using swim caps in the summer, ear muffs in the fall and a warm hat in the winter. And above all, remember that good hygiene and hearing protection are important year-round.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So you can enjoy every season to the fullest \u2013 without your ears throwing a spanner in the works.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ear problems are often seasonal: from hay fever in spring to ear infections in winter.
