Have you tried doing jumping jacks while tilting your head to the side? Works for me.

Same here! Quick and easy.

Here’s what I do: take a little warm water in your hand, pour it into your ear while tilting your head, let it sit for a few seconds, then tilt the other way to drain it. Works every time for me.

It worked perfectly. Thank you!

Lean forward like you’re touching your toes, tilt your head to the side, and give it a gentle shake. This usually lets the water out for me.

Thanks, I’ll try it. Banging my head on a pillow hasn’t worked, and now I just feel awful.
