Guest guest Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 About two weeks ago I cleaned my ears with Qtips and now I can't hear anything. Is there an oil or ointment I could use to remedy the situation????? I got tired of increasing ear wax formation. I know I am not suppose to use Qtips but I got tired of too much ear wax. Thanks. AL.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 You should try ear coning. It will pull out all of the wax, bacteria, fungus, and lots of other yummy stuff. You have to have someone who can do it for you, but that could easily be a friend, no professional needed. I do it all the time for my dh and anyone who asks, after watching it done once. I don't do it, but the girl I originally watched used EOs on the outside as well.

Guest guest Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I use hydrogeny peroxide with no ill effects. 3% best of luck you also may want to consider olive oil wax does prevent the inner ear skin from drying out etc © Spirtually_Speaking spirtually_speaking- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 Ear coning is what I was going to suggest as well. With all that's probably in there, though, make sure you use at least two cones per ear. I didn't even think I had that much of a problem, but I only had one cone done by my stepdaughter, and a day or two later, I was in pain! I was told later by a pro that you need to do at least two if you haven't done it regularly.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 We usually do two per ear as well. The girl who originally showed me how to do it also said to put some olive oil on a q-tip and swab it in your ear after to help with it becoming irritated from the coning.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008 Thank you so much for all of you that responded to my request. I've never heard of coning. What is it and how do I perform it on myself??? Thanks again. AL. , Tanya7774 <tanya7774 wrote: > > You should try ear coning.

Guest guest Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 If you search " ear coning " you should find lots of info. You can purchase the ear cones pretty much at any health food or natural food store, like Whole Foods. You take the cones and make a tight seal and light the end on fire (obviously not the one in your ear). If you see smoke around the ear try to reposition the cone until it makes a tight seal. It will create a vacuum and start pulling everything out of the ear. While this is the basic concept, I would google it to print up better directions. Good luck.
