you can not imagine the relief. Even the nurse was shocked how badly my ears were clogged with wax. Thank goodness it wasn’t the eardrum that I was afraid it was going to be. When she cleaned them out I let out an audible AHHHHHHHH and went oh my god. The other ear was even bad too and she was shocked I could hear out of it. The piece of wax that came out, shit you not, was like the size of a beetle. Amazed something like that could even get clogged in here.
Thanks to all you comrades for the well wishes.
You shouldn’t use that in the inner ear. Buy ear drops and a bulb at Amazon or find a cheaper price locally.
Google…
Funny thing is I’ve been using hp since I was a kid for chronic ear wax and it always worked. Going to get the drops now instead and keep on top of them.
I have an ear wax problem so I use the drops and a bulb. One crazy thing is you have to not make a mistake and use ear drops when you mean to use eye drops. You don’t want that shit in your eyes but the damn containers are identical. It’s crazy. I don’t understand why the FDA doesn’t mandate that ear drops have a red cap or something.
Yeah I was looking today in the store for an earwax kit and the eye drops, nasal stuff, all bleeds in together.
I hate the term “no brainer” but the FDA reminding people not to confuse the ear drops and eye drops is really a no brainer. I have to assume other countries have tackled this problem. I guess the head of the FDA is always beholden to the ear drops lobby.
All the commercial ear drops are based on either vinegar, alcohol, or hydrogen peroxide. And a list of antibiotics that steadily gets longer as resistance disseminates.

peroxide hardens ear wax and makes any that is compacted into a hardened and solid block
do not put peroxide into your ear
