This may not be a question of water in the outer ear, but rather fluid in the middle ear as a result of not equalising effectively on dives.

I would go and see your GP for an evaluation, as if it is fluid in the middle ear, you will have to let it be reabsorbed before diving. It will also give you a clue as to your equalisation techniques and their effectiveness.

If you don't do this, and have problems, there is a possibility of rupturing your oval window and this can pretty much put your dive career on hold for months, or even permanently.

Also (and this is a personal thing), punctuation in your postings does make you seem so much more professional and less of a kn*b. Try it.
