I used one of those ear wax removal kits (I know gross)

Now it made it worse

Feels like pressure in my ear now

I read online use HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

Anyone use it ?

    Do not screw with this. Go to a doctor. If you are really having that much of a decline in hearing you need to see a Ear,Nose Throat (ENT) specialist. i had very bad problems with the ear and have lost 50% hearing on the right hand side. Makes listening to PJ interesting. (Thank G-d mike's on the left in boots).

    I can not stress enough that it is worth checking out by a professional.

    oh NO. My uncle once thought he had an infection in his ear. It got reallybadd so he went to have it checked and they hadd to do some kind of surgery. They removed a PILE of waxxx and residue from using a q-tip to clean your ears!!!! :eek:

    Read up on it, but my understanding is you should never use a Q-tip IN your ear. Just lightly around the outside and even then it is not necessary.

    Your ear moves the wax out naturally like conveyor belt.

    I don't know this sounds like a good time


    http://www.earthclinic.com/CURES/ear_wax.html

    HYDROGEN PEROXIDE
    We heard about this treatment from an ENT (Ear Nose Throat) MD and have practiced it for years. We love it! We have passed the practice on to friends who have in turn passed it on their friends. However, before you try it, check with your doctor first! Some people experience severe ear or jaw pain after trying this remedy (see below).

    NOTE: For safety, don't do this treatment before flying. Make sure there are a few days between the treatment and getting on a plane. Also, do not try this remedy if you have existing ear or jaw pain -- it may make the condition worse! If you have any doubts about trying this remedy, don't try it... Contact your doctor first and get his/her opinion. One more note -- do not do this remedy more than once in each ear. Wait a few days in between before trying it again if you feel it did not dissolve all the wax.

    The recipe:
    Lay a towel down on your bed or carpet. Then fill a dropper (buy at the pharmacy in the infant section) with drugstore bought 3% hydrogen peroxide (about .79 a bottle at any pharmacy). Lying on your side, fill one ear with hydrogen peroxide. After a few moments you will hear fizzing. Quite normal. After a minute or two, add more peroxide. Wait, relax, enjoy. After another few minutes, add more. The peroxide fizzes away, which is why you must keep adding more. Wait until the fizzing stops -- 10 to 15 minutes -- indicative that the wax has been dissolved. Shake remaining liquid from your ear onto the towel and repeat on the other ear. Since this takes time, you may want to do one ear one day and the other the following day.

    If you feel a "slushing" in your ear following this treatment, you probably did not give the peroxide enough time. This will feel quite uncomfortable but don't be alarmed! The peroxide probably dislodged the wax but did not dissolve it. Try again. Trick is to keep the ear filled with liquid. You'll be amazed at how much it fizzes up. We did this on a friend a few years back and a huge piece of ear wax floated up and out of his ear. This same person had to go to an ENT every year or two to have chunks of ear wax removed so you can imagine how grateful he was to have a do-it-at-home treatment that actually worked!

    If you use ear plugs, you can also clean them using hydrogen peroxide. Simply put peroxide in a cup and toss in the plugs... they will be back to perfect condition within 20 minutes or so.

    Don't believe H202 actually helps to dissolve ear wax?'Try this experiment:

    Clean your ears with a q-tip. Add a few tablespoons of drugstore H202 to a glass and drop the waxy q-tip inside the glass. Within 10 minutes the q-tip will be white again, absolutely no wax left.

    No question about it, H202 dissolves ear wax. Visible proof.

    I'd pay a visit to your doc. Actually, they do it for you if you ask, even before you mess up by yourself :)

    That peroxide thing doesn't sound right.
    ... and the will to show I will always be better than before.

    I always wondered if those kits were good. I have used hydrogen Peroxide when one of my ears were clogged. It did work in my case.

    The kit sucks

    The "Bulb" is like the size you would use for a baby

    Next time I will just use a $1 bottle of Hydrogen Peroxide and water
