I was cleaning my ear out with a q-tip today and it got stopped up.

People tell me I may have jammed some wax up my canal.

I've tried peroxide in my ear,water,and cleaning it out with a q-tip and alcohol.

I even have one of those ear suction things. NOTHING IS WORKING.

See a doctor ASAP. You can do more harm than good playing with your ears. If it is wax, the doctor can syringe it out for you, and if not, he will surely send you to an ENT. Please don't neglect this.

Hope it all passes quickly and painlessly

Soul: U don't need a lecture `but' there are fibers inside the ear that are there to move debrie `away' frm drum. You'll get an infection if movement-
fibers get damaged. Hm-trial is clean-warm `olive oil' dripped in off spoon
while laying on opposite side for 10 min & put in cotton then turn & let drain
10 min then repeat 4x day. The warm oil warms wax & helps pull it away.
After, if rt-ear, seal left ear by folding flap in, slt. pinch off nose, blow air
VERY easy to fill cheeks & air will go up eustachian tube & pop drum. Too
hard & U can perforate. If ear hurts doing this `valsalva technique' you must
go to ENT or your Dr. to peak in.
