Someone please help? I've had this
problem as a baby, I get sick and my ears
do this hyper intensive wax build up.
Long story short i'm just getting over
being sick (again) and I think I may have
had one ear that had more wax in it then I
thought. Any ways, how do I get this
piece of wax out without having to go to
the doctor?
Any sorts of remedies will not be turned
down (as long as not intrusive or
painful)
:oops:
:cry:

Ear Wax Posted: 04-11-05 10:54am
Hi, I have the same problem but I also
have vertigo which is caused by wax build
up that hardens and effects the nerve
endings and the signals sent to the brain
which causes the dizziness..So I have been
told..Or from head trauma like I had.
One thing I found that helps with the wax
build up is a kit from the pharmacy called
cerumol, it has drops(warm them first) put
into the ear and plug with a cotton ball
and let sit for 10 minutes then tilt your
head and hopefully some of the wax comes
out, then flush the ear with warm water
with the pump they supply in the kit. It
is best to warm it because anything cold
put into your ear causes dizziness..Been
there done that..Another remedy is warm
peroxide and drop into ear and use a
cotton ball to keep it there wait 10
minutes (it might fizz so don't be
alarmed) and tilt head back so it can come
out and then warm some rubbing alcohol and
put a few drops in to evaporate any liquid
still there since liquid in the ear also
causes dizziness if left. These are
things I have tried and my dizziness is
almost gone and the ear doesn't feel full
anymore so the ear wax is gone also..
Good luck

So once you use these kits, does the wax
fall out by itself? Do you have to use a
q-tip to take it out?

Peotmcc, yes the wax when softened by the
drops will come out by itself when you
tilt your head to let it run out and what
is left will wash out with the bulb
syringe you get with the kit that you fill
with warm water and flush the ear with.
It really works well. Never put a q-tip
in the ear you will only push the wax in
further..Good luck

Question For Sarahp Posted: 04-12-05 18:42pm
Hi sarah, I have another question.
Reading about yourvertigo made me think
about my nausea and headache problem. For
the past few days, I have been having
nausea and a pain between my eybrows.
Could it be related to the ear wax thing?

Poetmcc, I don't know if your headaches
and nausea are from ear wax or not but my
guess would be maybe you have a sinus
problem. Headaches between the eyes and
brow usually are connected to sinus or it
could be a migraine headache which makes
you nauseas.. Good luck
