Yesterday a patient called the pharmacy asking for tips for ear care as her child preps for a surgery. We wanted to share these tips as we thought others could benefit.

Here are some tips!

💧 Why keep ears dry?
Water in the ear can:

Introduce bacteria
Delay healing
Cause irritation or discomfort
Increase risk of post-surgical complications

🛁 Tips to Keep Water Out of Your Ears:

Use a cotton ball coated lightly with petroleum jelly during showers
Consider earplugs designed for bathing/swimming
Avoid submerging your head in baths or pools unless cleared by your provider
Be cautious when washing hair—tilt your head to keep water away from the ear
Gently dry the outer ear with a towel (no cotton swabs inside!)

🚫 What to Avoid:

No swimming or hot tubs before and after surgery (unless your ENT says it’s okay)
Avoid inserting anything into the ear canal
Skip over-the-counter ear drops unless directed

💬 When to Call Your Provider:

Ear pain, drainage, or a feeling of fullness
Fever or signs of infection
Concerns about water exposure before surgery

Taking a few extra precautions now can help ensure a smoother surgery and recovery. If you have questions, we’re always here to help! Message us through facebook, text us at the pharmacy, or call the pharmacy.

What's your favorite spot in the Driftless Area?

Lights Out 🌑🌑🌑

Tonight, millions of people around the world will switch off their lights for Earth Hour (8:30-9:30 p.m. your local time).

But what happens when we go beyond just one hour?

Reducing unnecessary light at night doesn’t just save energy. It restores habitats for wildlife, improves our sleep, and reveals a star filled sky that’s often missing.

The image shows the Bortle Scale, which ranks the night from skyglow to true darkness.

Every light we turn off helps move us one step closer to a darker sky.

Turn off your lights, step outside, and join the movemet to protect the night. Visit darksky.org to learn more.
