In the UK we are not allowed or told by medical professionals to use cotton buds (Qtips) as the swabs can push the wax inside the ear making your hearing worse.
I have now in the last few month been told to use Olive Oil 3 drops per ear anything from 1ce a week to 4 times a week to keep my ears clean.
But i just found an article that states putting oil in your ear can clog your canal i will post link to the article at the bottom for you to read through.
But since i use oil i often find after i wash my hair i get a under water effect for upto 24 hours after i use oil ( even if it is not the same day i clean my ears)
So in my experience i find oil helpful to a degree but i do get a lot of after effects. I have also find i hear what i describe as a caterpillar eating a leaf with a high pitch constant bleep.
I also have noticed that after an hour of wearing mt dome aids i find myself using this tube to try itch my ear.
I found someone on tumblr and they gave me a suggestion to try for a 5min ear clean with oil
1) For 1 minute you put the required amount of oil in your ear
2) 3 minutes in you slowly rub the out of ear with a single drop of ear to stop dry skin in front or behind the ear depends where the dry skin or irritation happens
3) 4mins in start a slightly harder rub rubbing all around the ear opening
Pushing the oil into the canal of your ear
4) leave alone for the last minute to let the oil settle back down.
5) when you clean the ear only clean up excess do not stick anything inside the opening and keep tissue handy incase oil leaks out later.
So what do you do to clean your ears or stop the itching?
