knapplc Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 You can try over-the-counter ear wax drops and see if that helps. I've used them before flights. Worth a shot. Quote Link to comment
Enhance Posted May 15, 2017 Author Share Posted May 15, 2017 knapplc's suggestion is good. The cost at the doctor depends on your medical coverage - mine cost virtually nothing. You can also purchase systems similar to what doctors use online (reference Colorado Husk's post above) but I'd be incredibly cautious. The nurse went way past recommended q-tip depth and all the way into the inner ear, but she was a trained professional. You could hurt yourself if you do something wrong. Quote Link to comment
ColoradoHusk Posted May 16, 2017 Share Posted May 16, 2017 I tried out the Elephant Ear flusher on myself last night. Not much came out, but I did become a little dizzy. I made sure to use warm/hot water. I will try it again with a mixture of peroxide and water. Maybe the peroxide will help loosen things up in the ear canal, or maybe I have clean ears.
