Date: January 7th, 2025 10:31 PM Author: jinja Seeing these ear scoops getting popular now but I'm not sure which is tcr I've used both and also a water-pik type thing but that was extremely uncomfortable. The foaming solution they sell at the chemist plus a hot shower seems to be the best of all |

Date: January 8th, 2025 12:09 AM Author: jinja The scoop advocates say that this actually just ends up pushing it in further and eventually with enough repetition causes the wax to compress and lessen your hearing (especially if caucasian, w/ the wet wax gene) as long as it's in there Idk if its true but I had a doctor do a removal recently while I was getting treated for Strep and there was a LOT of shit in there. Like a shocking amount. And I typically keep them pretty clean and swap 2x a day |

Date: January 8th, 2025 12:11 AM Author: hank_scorpio it stops it from ever happening, you should never, ever, for even a second, have enough wax build up in your ear to push shit anywhere, that is gross you clearly let it get bad then started shoving shit in your ear |

Date: January 8th, 2025 12:21 AM Author: jinja Subject: *what an ugly ESL-feeling run-on sentence lmao. not editing it Even if its not visually detectable, a gradual buildup that no Q-tip can fully remove is happening, especially if you never have them professionally irrigated.* Go to an ENT, pay the 40$ or whatever and then report back. I bet you they flush a whole sculpture of a creek out of there You feel great after too. The state of the inner ear affects things as seemingly disparate as your balance |

Date: January 8th, 2025 12:25 AM Author: hank_scorpio I used to get tons of ear infections as a small child, I am very careful with ear care and keep all water out of them and have never had any buildup, but yeah you can tell immediately when something is wrong, but don't let it get there (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5660611&forum_id=2).#48530312) |

Date: January 8th, 2025 1:36 AM Author: .,.,.;;,;.,..,:,,:,...,:::,...,:,.,.;.:...:.,:.::, the problem with q tips is that they compact your shit easily. it's the nature of the assignment in this case that there's a direct tradeoff between safety and effectiveness.

Date: January 8th, 2025 1:53 AM Author: peeface i've never had this problem. i guess people have different wax consistencies (mine is generally pretty sticky) and ear shapes. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5660611&forum_id=2).#48530495) |
