My right ear is clogged...

My right ear is clogged. I've tried using cotton swaps and ear wax remover liquid for an hour now AND IT'S NOT FUCKING WORKING. I'M GETTING AGITATED.

You don't have a squeezy bulb thing or a waterpik?

Yeah, the liquid came with the squeezy bulb thing. It's not pulling anything anymore.

Pulling? You're not using it to flush?

Use a syringe, shoot some warm water inside your ear

I squeeze, release and squeeze it back out in the sink, nothing's coming out.

It's probably not in the outer ear, it's probably in your eustachian tube that connects the middle ear to your throat to permit the pressure to equalize.

Stop fucking putting things in your ear. You are going to damage your eardrum or give yourself swimmer's ear and then you'll be in even more pain.

cover your nostrils, close your mouth and blow
if it doesn't work don't do anything stupid and go see a doctor, you don't want to fuck up your hearing.

Buy a cheap old waterpik off ebay and use it on the lowest possible setting. It's for 'flossing' with water but the only thing I ever used mine for was disimpacting ear wax. And it is pretty much guaranteed to work.
It's not supposed to suck it up nerd, you should be squeezing that fucker like you were trying to use it to dislodge food from a pan. Dig that nozzle as deep as you can into your ear, get the best angle you can towards the back, and SMASH dat motherfuckin' like button.

This is called the valsalva maneuver. Be fucking careful, don't overdo it. You can damage your eardrums. But it's basically the only thing you can do.

You might also try a decongestant, but it's unlikely to work on shit that's up your eustachian tube.

Jesus, this is the worst idea I've heard of in a long time.

Why don't you people just clean your ears out when you're in the shower? It's not fucking hard and it prevents that shit from building up in the first place.

>Jesus, this is the worst idea I've heard of in a long time.
Your doctor is going to use an identical device. It will work in a matter of seconds.

Unless you mean all this, the only thing I put in my ears are earbuds

I just tried this, it worked kinda? I'll see if it gets clogged again, it's still "foggy"

>Dig that nozzle as deep as you can into your ear, get the best angle you can towards the back, and SMASH dat motherfuckin' like button.
That's what I did m8

Good, but make sure once you've got it in deep enough, pull laterally on it so the water and ear wax has an escape route. You're not supposed to suck it up, it just flows out of your head.

>Unless you mean all this, the only thing I put in my ears are earbuds
Yes, I mean all the shit you're putting in your ears to "unclog" them. You are going to hit the eardrum and damage it, remove so much wax that your outer ear skin isn't protected (and it'll get irritated, swollen, and painful), or you'll get a fungal infection in your outer ear.

>I just tried this, it worked kinda? I'll see if it gets clogged again, it's still "foggy"
If it did anything at all, it means it's because your eustachian tube on that side is blocked and the pressure can't equalize between your middle and outer ear.

another thing you can do is clean your index fingers (and trimmed nails for god's sake), place your fingertips so they cover your ears, gradually apply preassure while turning your fingers a little (in the direction your ear canal gets smaller) and when you feel its all covered up and "sealed", pull out as fast as you can.

but then again I don't know whats causing your problem, if it's wax it probably ain't gonna do anything

It clogged up again in a few minutes, I guess all I can do it wait till tomorrow and go to the doctor

So it caused it to open at all? That means it's the middle ear. Doctor is gonna tell you the same thing, but I'm not gonna tell you not to go to the doctor. But I can tell you the answer is gonna be decongestant, maybe valsalva, and wait it out. If it's bad for a really long time, they might recommend ear tubes (which is what they do for small children who have chronic ear infections).

Oh yeah, I guess you could have a middle ear infection. That would cause the eustachian tube to close.

So there's nothing else I can do from home?

not this guy
but this guy
have you tried this?

It has the same result as the valsalva, feels faintly clear for a bit, then gets clogged again.

Smooshing around your ear a bit? I mean, couple that with yawning and yeah, sometimes you can get a little movement of the eustachian tube that could open it temporarily. Valsalva maneuver is usually more effective though.

>Smooshing
I'm not familiar with that word sorry
basically it's just sealing your ear canal and generating vacuum when pulling out, I thought it could be more effective than Valsalva.

if it's wax the doctor's probably gonna give you some drops to dissolve it, painless and really simple.

It's not wax, jesus christ. The guy already opened his ear up with valsalva momentarily. That valsalva did anything at all means it's not outer ear, and therefore not wax.

k

i'd try lying on my bad ear without a pillow, if it's liquid it will eventually come out, have you been in a swimming pool or something?

Nope, I just rubbed my ear and boom.

Did you not hear anything I just said? It is not outer ear. It is middle ear. It is the eustachian tube. There is nothing that is going to "come out" of the guy's ear.

If you don't understand basic fucking anatomy you need to get the fuck out of this thread, now.

So at this point it's out of my hands yes? All I can do it deal with it?

What the fuck did you just fucking say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo.

Go see the doc if it's really bothering you. But you digging in your ear or putting things in your ear is only going to hurt your ear at this point.

Lay on your side, pour hydrogen peroxide in your ear, and let it bubble. It may be cligged earwax and this method softens it.

The dollar tree store has those baby booger sucker things. For a dollar of course. Take a hot bath with it and fill the plunger completely with water an air bubble WILL fuck your ear up! Any squeeze water into your as hard as you can handle and boom all sorts of nasty shit should come out.

Don't know if anyone recommended this but go buy one of those ear kits that you light on fire and it sucks up all the gunk in your ear. They burn like a candle and work like a charm

Top kek

I only know the Asian way. I think this only works for dry ear wax though. You give someone else (your mom) an ear pick, lay down on your side, and they scrape it out for you. I don't know any other way.

Black user here, my mom did this as a kid too.

Jesus, read the thread you idiots. He's already been putting shit in his ears all day, he's gonna have no cerumen left in his ear and it's gonna get infected.

Interesting, I thought only Asian families did this.

You'd be surprised how similar people turn out to be dude.

If you must do this, I would suggest seeing an ENT specialist if you can, they'd be better suited to handling whatever you've got going on in your ears and safely.
