I hearby declare everyone to make an appt with their doctor to get their ears cleaned

[f355f1]

Last wednesday I was cleaning my ears out after showering with q-tips(standard protocol then) and before long my hearing in my left ear vanished. I scheduled an appointment to get it checked after the trying to let it fix over time method failed and eww...

Basically it was simply that I needed to get my ears cleaned so an assistant got a bowl of warm water, an oral syringe, some hydrogen peroxide, and shot it up my ear with the syringe and out came some ancient ear 'plugs/wax/q-tip remains/dust/etc' garbage about the size of a jelly bean(srs) that had been collecting over time for the course of my entire life possibly. It literally looked like black ear plug.

As I type this I think I'm typing too damn loud and I can all of a sudden hear a lot more clearly.

Go get your ****in' ears cleared you dirty ****s. Who knows what kind of ancient **** is lodged up in there.

cliffs:

-wax/q-tip remains build up over time in your ears
-all that ^^^ = bad hearing
-go to doctor to get it cleaned out or do it yourself

reps for this... had it done last year and could not ****ing believe the **** that came out.

[metroins]

I had something the size of a bb come out that was a wax buildup one day. Was gross but I could hear better.

I had my ears totally cleaned a couple years ago... same thing as you, the stuff that came out was nasty as ****.

i always use q-tips but they obviously don't do a very good job.

[Nutir]

you can buy some **** at any store too, there's an oil and water based version

My doc told me to use that because I had some pain in my ear and they couldn't do the usual "pressurized" version because of that

Worked wonders, less than 5$ and that bottle is gonna last a while

[nosliw]

Can I do it myself? F making an appointment missing work and paying a copay for that

[VaginaHater]

[ronaldo23]

I work in the lab at my Univ's hospital, the LVN's can do ear irrigations since they're pretty simple to do. When you use those q-tips, you should NEVER push deep into the ear canal, if you do you will cause the wax to become compacted together causing a loss of hearing--exactly what happened to the OP.

I have read several studies which suggest that ear wax is healthy for the normal functioning of the ear, think about it, did our ancestors use q-tips? Although I use them myself, just be careful not to dig for gold.

I work in a doctors office and do this daily.

Some of the wax chunks we pull out are marble size, Im talking massive entire ear blocking masses.

Have pulled our flys, spiders and other bugs with it too. Nasty as fuk man, but kinda cool.

I have yellow crap that falls out of my ear all the time

What kind of doctor do I go to???

[aekest]

Went to doctor back two years ago, and she looked into my ears.
Asked if I wanted to have a rock load of ear wax removed. Because if not I can leave it there, wutever.
Me: "WTF?" I didn't understand why my own doctor WOULDN'T want to remove it.

Next thing you know she took some hook like contraption and took out this chunch of rock hard solidified wax. It was like a pinky clipping, and hurt a bit to take out.

Either way, good to go to a doctor from time to time.

will a GP do this on a routine physical visit?

Yep, your family physician should do it.

This, not to mention eardrums are quite fragile (not that much, but you never know ) and coming from someone who actually had a couple ruptured eardrums, you don't wanna go through it.

[TracyTF]

groce.





If you have too little ear wax you can get an ear infection. lol.

[PrimeraRS]

I 've been wanting to get this done.

Just goto your GP and asked to have it done... takes 10 minutes at most.

A general physician will do it.

[FeelsBadBrah]

Was it satisfying getting that much removed? Did it feel good? Like that relief kind of good?

[Tyler44]

spiders!?!?!?

Im absolutely not exaggerating bro, do a couple of these a week myself for patient's.

[FoxMcCocks]

lol @ using qtips to clean ears

[TreyTrey]

i cringed at that vid and then had the feeling of wanting to get it done to me, but the risks outweigh the positives imo
