Paramedic Girl	You need to go to your doctor to have your ears drained. NEVER, ever use a Q Tip to clean out your ears... all it does is pack it in and cause other problems too. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

I use Google for your answers.	There is something one of my teachers used. You put a wick in your ear and light it. The heat of the candle draws up the wax from your ear. They have groups that do this, don't do it by yourself. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

John P	You can purchase ducosate stool Softener, ok ok sounds strange, they come in little gel caps. Simply break the capsule and allow the fluid to run into your ear. The solution will effectively break up the ear wax. Allow the solution to sit no more than 10 minutes in your ear cannal before turning your head to the other side and allowing the solution to run out. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

adriannasamaniego	if you can't get to the doctor today there is a ear wax remover at any pharmacy ask the pharmacist and they will help you until you see the doctor. and quit putting water in your ears not wise. some wax is good to protect your ear drum but not a lot where you can see it if your look at some ones head and their ears look dirty. and you don't put the Q tip all the way in your ear only on the outer part of the ear and in the creases(NEVER ALL THE WAY IN).i have a problem with Q tips also i can't use them because i get ear aches after wards. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

peanut	yeah you are going to have to go to the doctor right away to get that out. and while you are there, have him/her teach you the proper way to use a q-tip. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ThePeter	You can buy kits with a rubber squeezy thing that you fill up with warm water which you spray into your ear. You can't shoot water into your ear unless it's the right temperature or you'll hurt yourself. So it's got to be about body temperature (or slightly warmer). As long as it's not too hot and you're not squirting water with too much pressure, it won't hurt. Just start gently. After several attempts, the wax should be coming loose and dislodge. Just don't rush it. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

♥Aubrey♥	Don't add water to your ear. The best solution is too use ear Drops. They work quickly and effectively. Also, don't go sticking your finger in your ear, it can make the problem worse. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

grapelady911	try an ear irrigation kit, they sell em at the drug store.. or go to the Dr. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Jim Z	Please, please, please don't ask questions about your health on this site! The chances of getting an answer that could make a bad situation worse is far greater than getting a real answer. Go to your regular doctor, and if you can't then ask the pharmacist at your grocery store... at least they have some training. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

hey h	sigh. the japanese generally use this ear-wax picking stick, and when i was little, it worked well for me (i haven't had one in a while though). but there are not "ear-safe"/child-safe cotton ear cleaners. you can probably find them in most grocery stores, and i'm guessing that you could find them handy. i suggest getting a wood toothpick and bending the tip. if you decide to do this, be VERY CAREFUL, you can hurt yourself doing this. you may just be better off getting someone to do this for you if you do it at all. or better yet, try another cotton swab, but take your time and do it right. you may want to see a doctor about this, or try calling a family member, they may be able to help you with this (the apple doesn't fall far from the tree). either way, good luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

nigel v	please go to a doctor you will cause much more damage (maybe permanent) attempting to fix this problem yourself. good luck Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

PraiseBob	Well, first off: DON'T DO THAT! Those are not "ear cleaner things", they are cotton swabs and should not be jammed in our ear, not only for the reason you just described, but because you can rupture your eardrum if you are not careful. You can buy an ear cleaning kit at the pharmacy that consists of a bulb syringe and some drops that Loosen the wax, but I have found them to be less than effective. Your best bet at this point is to go to the doctor's office and have them remove the impacted wax. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Roger N	Try taking a hot bath and laying with that ear underwater. BTW...No. It doesn't hurt but it does feel weird. I went to the doc one time and had it done. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

bobbyblackeyes	try an ear bulb(available at most pharmacies) filled w/ hot water (not too hot mind you) and flush out your ear!!!! they also sell ear wax kits that come with the bulb!!!!!!!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mark S	Use the ear Drops. I had the same thing happen, and used the drops and you would be amazed at how much wax comes out of there. You should be able to find it at any convenience store or grocery store - in the pharmacy section. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

groovywoodpecker	You need to see a Doctor to rinse out your ear with lightly pressurized water. This is normally done with a syringe. Sorry honey.. no quick solution. You could also try ear Drops if your ear is sore. AND NO it doesn't hurt :) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
