Anyone ever have a problem with their ear getting clogged? I q-tipped around inside my left ear the other day and think I shoved some wax way up in there. Since then I've been having trouble hearing out of my left ear and since I have Tinnitus all I can hear is ringing. I've been dripping some Olive oil in my ear to loosen it up then using Hyd. Peroxide to break it up (read some people and Doctors online whos say this works), but so far its still clogged. I'm trying to avoid going to the Doctor since its not an infection, but the constant ringing is driving me insane.

Use warm, soapy water. Get yourself one of these at the pharmacy:



Don't think about sucking the wax out. Just fill the bulb with the warm, soapy water, and gently squeeze the bulb to shoot the water into your ear, with your ear pointing down, so the wax washes out. You'll probably need to do this a few times, but it will come out.

get a shop vac, fold your ear into the the end of the hose so that the hose is flush with your skull, and turn it on.  problem solved.

It's earwax, not a fetus.

Two observations:

1.  It's funny when a pharmacist says to someone in line in front of you, "Valtrex, right?"
2.  Chicks that hang out in tanning salons are hot and seem slutty.

Dudes who hang out in tanning salons, on the other hand, are farging weirdo slimeballs, you weirdo slimeball you.

I walked past it.  Thrice.  And gawked.

"No, man. When I realized they left me on the battlefield to die, I said, "farg it!" ... I said, "I'll pull those motherfargers in, let them see what it's like." I would rather be out here in the witness program than to be in jail with them. Why would I wanna be in there with them kinda stillupfronts? I don't regret it. I saw this show on CNN, with Anderson Cooper. Cats were talking about "Don't snitch, no matter what happens." Well, I can't see how a guy can be considered strong if he lets a bunch of iceholes walk all over him and he doesn't respond, just because of some code that a bunch of idiots have cooked up. Anderson Cooper asked this rapper, "Suppose a child was molested and you knew who this molester was. Would you tell the police?" He said, "No." So that's what I'm sayin'—the street guidelines are just moron bullshtein."

I have this problem occassionally too.  What the doc did to clear mine was fill a 20cc syringe with saline and wash it out.  Use pressure.  It was amazing when the plug came out.  Think of a balled up nickel, it was that size.

Gotta love the old school guys.  Great find Dio.

I know more about you farger's earwax problems then I ever cared to.  Which was none.

So he used a large syringe with luke warm water and flushed the wax out. I feel a trillion times better, almost euphoric (no, I'm not exaggerating)
