ear wax removal ? I can not hear properly ...
by LukeC, Oct 20, 2009 11:56AM
+My Veterans Adminstration primary Doctor told me i had a major in ear WAX buildup & it was hard & that one way to help removed it was to mix regular alcohol & Hydrogen peroxide evenly & lay down & tilt my head & put a oz or 2 in each ear 1 or 2 minutes & then flush & that may clear the ear ? In the mean time he is to send me a prescription to loosen up the present ear wax & needed flushing materials.
SO, Has any body heard of this procedure & what results if any ?
Thank You.

Why not just see an ENT doc and get it taken care of the same day without all of that mess?
This self procedure "may" do other things to, such as induce a dizzy spell you will not soon forget.
Beyond, that, how will you know if actually cleared your ears to begin with.
If you are looking to save a buck, go visit an audiologist. They "may" or may not have the tools to clean your ears. In some states it "may" not be within their scope of practice. (cerumen management/removal)
Regardless, you apparently have VA ben. so I'd just visit with them rather than try home remedies.
Good luck
