Ear infection

Description
On Saturday, July 30, 2016, I went surfing at Bolsa Chica State Beach in Orange County. I was out in the water for an hour. At approximately 12:20 a.m. the following morning I awoke with a strong ear ache in my left ear. This is ironic, because I had been taking a surfing lesson that morning and my instructor told me that sometime people that he taught, ended up with ear aches/infections at that beach. I didn't think anything of it when he was talking to me, but now I most certainly do.Additional Data
