is full of fluid, the one that I sleep

Umm.. Lol your not even supposed to use a
q-tip to clean your ears after a showwer.
Sticking anything in your ears is bad. If
it doesnt get better you may have to go to
the doctor.

supposed to dry out your ear.

Pour some salt into a tea towel (about a
cup of salt in a pile) and fold the towel
round and round the salt, then put in the
microwave for about 30 seconds to warm the
salt (make sure it isn't too hot, salt can
burn bad) then hold the warm salt package
to your ear. Reheat as needed, but throw
away when you are finished with it (don't
use for cooking or stuff).
Always helped me so far.

I used to have earaches a lot, I always
use just ear drops. Put the ear drops in
and then but a cotton ball in your ear so
the drops stay in. Plug in a blow dryer
and set it on low and let the hot air blow
in the ear...Heating pads work good also~
I know might sound a little silly, but it
has worked for m in the past! Hope your
ear starts feeling better~

I have used a heating pad in the past for
ear aches and it works wonders for me. I
always use it....

Lmao
a tea towel is made from slightly
different fabric to a hand towel (bit
thinner, less fluffy - lint free), whereas
our hand towels are just smaller versions
of body/bath towels.
Wow language barrier lol
