Question about ear plugs...

[pianolover 88]

Linda,

I'm very curious; what exactly is a "swamp" infection, and what are the 
symptoms? I have worn foam earplugs for many, many years to help me sleep, 
as I awaken at the slightest sound. I have developed a very frustrating ear 
problem that I hesitate to call an "infection", but it may be this "swamp" 
thing you referred to. I find myself scratching my ears quite frequenly, and 
there is always a build-up of stuff in there that i can never get completely 
out, and what i do get out just comes back again. Thanks.

Terry
