Bump. Where do I go for this?

[88CRX]

Literally any Doctor or walk in clinic.

Candling. Seriously?

Please post the pseudoscience behind that.

And as good as it may feel at the time, putting a qtip in your ear will only make the issue worse.

Yah I have this issue constantly. Any walk in clinic can syringe your ears.

I actually bought my own so I can do it at home now.

I get mine flushed from time to time by my family doctor.

Hydrogen peroxide. Pour a small cap into your ear while laying down and wait 3 minutes. Take a tissue and turn your head over, should dump some wax out with the peroxide. Repeat 2-3 times until your clean.

Should?

How exactly is that more of a band aid solution, and how exactly will that dump ear wax?

Let's be clear lol, ear wax is necessary to avoid infections. If you have excessive ear wax, it's due to your lifestyle habits, or a very rare condition of abnormally small ear canals. The latter doesn't supply enough air flow to dry out and emit the excessive ear wax.

My grandma has been going to the doctor to get her ears flushed for a long time. She went pretty deaf (more than usual) recently and went to the ear specialist. He used some ninja tool and went in there way further than a normal doc can, and took friggin' huge hunks of wax out. He told her not to bother flushing or waxing, come see him next time it happens, she may just be prone to buildup.

Not sure if he's right or if he's trying to get a line on repeat business, but that's my cool story.
