Hi,

Thanks for your query.

You can certainly go to Leh. There is no contraindication. However, continue taking your medicines and get the ear check-up done as suggested by your doctor.

Before you start your swimming it is better to consult your ENT specialist for guidance. He may advise you to use ear plugs to prevent water from entering.

Wishing you the best.
