I've never had ear wax before. So how do you get rid of it?

High pressure steam will clear out the probem permanently, not to mention clearing your mind! :D

And how come it's worse in my left ear than in my right? Is it because that ear catches all the crud when I drive with the window down?

Your mother, obviously, never taught you ear maintenance. I had the same problem, so I know.

If you've got a plug, that's one thing. Lot's of over the counter stuff, and en extremis a doc. I had this deafness in the past, and gradually worked it out. No doc.

As a general routine, Q tips after the shower. Be careful. You can dig fairly deep, but it's easy to damage the drum of the ear, and we don't want that. Regular swabbing will keep it from building up.

Is this as icky as jock itch, or toe jam? What! :D

Maggie uses a big syringe filled with warm water to schmoof the stuff out of her patients' ears...kind of like an ear-enema, I guess. I think she has 'em soak in olive oil, first.

Great thread, by the way. Best thing I've seen on the forum since Dave Carnell described his rotting penis.

ChadIsh, read this and I'll repeat. "Never put anything in your ear but your elbow."

This stuff works great. Put a couple of drops in your ear and lay down and let it work for about 5 minutes. Than use the bulb thing in their with warm water and flush out your ear.

Be carefull. When that big chunck of wax comes out of your ear you will be extremlly dizzy for 15 minutes or so.

Chad

edited to add. Q-tips acomplishe nothing but the packing of the ear wax into the ear canel.

Buddy Hackett knew how to get rid of ear wax.

This is the closest to his story I could find.

"This guy goes into a massage parlour. During which the masseuse asks if he would like a "wax job".
"No thank you" he politely says and she continues his service.
By the middle of his massage she starts grazing his genital area, and he becomes mildly aroused. "Are you sure you don't want wax job?" she says.
"Yes yes, i'm sure" he says but admittedly has piqued his interest. He is curious.
So she really starts kneading his sore muscles and he starts to get excited as she includes kneading his member. "How bout wax job, you like wax job"
By this time he's so into it, his eyes roll back and he says "yes yes, I want the wax job!"
She has him lie on his back and she brings out a long flat piece of wood with a feather on top of it.
He thinks, "ooh yah i'm gonna like this!"
So she proceeds to take out the feather, and ever so slighthy runs it up and down his genitals.
He's never felt that before, and he's wondering how wonderful this feels.
She brings him to the peak of excitment as she tickles him further. "are you ready for wax job?" she says.
"oh god, yes, give me the wax job" he exclaims as he can barely contain himself.
She then gently places the feather to rest between his legs, and proceeds to get the wooden plank.
She then raises the plank with both hands over her head and SLAMS IT onto his penis, WHAM!!!!!!!!!!!
.

......and the wax shot out of his ears.

When I was on Tobago this past October, I was invited to a "lime".... Basically a party.... Lotta good food, nice people, live music.... The music was so loud, I put some wadded up toilet paper in my ears to act as ear protectors.....Well.... One of them came out just fine. The one in my left ear broke in half. It was so far in my ear I couldn't get it. It sounded like someone was crushing brown paper bags next to my ear every time I moved, swallowed, or spoke. It was there all night. Next morning I had a meeting with the chief administrator. I asked the guest house owner if he had tweezers. "no" I asked his mother "no" I asked his Grandmother "no". I asked my friend Raymond, who was giving me a ride to the Govt. house. "no, but let me ask this woman for a hair pin"..... Took him about 10 minutes, but he managed to pull it out....
And on the "never put anything except your elbow in your ear" bit.... I use Q-tips every morning. If you know how to use them, and use them regularly, they're great. If you let gunk build up, they can cause more trouble.

and here is the Dave Carnell quoteon the use of antifreeze:


am the discoverer of this pharmaceutical wonder, and have had a good many testimonials from satisfied users. I completely eliminated athlete's foot and toenail fungus over 15 years ago. I cured my balanophosphitis (diaper rash under the foresking) to the amazement of my urologist. During the three years my beloced Eleanor was bedridden, we kept her skin free of breaks or bedsores with it. I have had reports of cures from people for whom Lamosil® had failed. To me, it makes more sense to put something on your toes than to treat by taking something internally.

I thought about the wax job joke as soon as I saw the thread.

A couple of drops of olive oil at night and a bulb syringe rinse with warm water in the morning and you'll be a new man.

It is called the Tragedy of SHDS -- Selective Hearing Deficit Syndrome. It renders the child unable to hear his parents. The second is called Male Pattern Listening. I do not believe this requires any explanation.
