Ears stopped up

[crazelion]

I was wondering should I go to the doctor my ears is stop up. Ears has been popping for the last two days.

Does any have this problem and what do you do for it.

I don't have this problem but my DH & DD do.
You can buy Murine ear wax remover
It's like a warm water flush for ear to loosen wax
My daughter's ped also cleans out her ears from time to time
good luck

I suffer from this problem chronically and go to an ENT frequently for an ear wash to flush them out. My doctor recently gave me an ear syringe so I could do this on my own. Just a warning though, I did it at home and developed swimmer's ear from the water getting trapped inside my ear canal.

I then developed an infection so bad, that the antibiotics didn't start to clear it up for well over a week. This happened a few days before our trip, and it really put a damper on the first half of my vacation.

Just be careful that you're doing it correctly, so you don't end up with the same problem that I had. I've also heard that ear coning/candling is very effective in removing excess ear wax, and is now done in many spas and salons.

Good luck!

Have you had a cold recently? A few months ago I had a cold which led to fluid in my ears. They would pop and at times feel like I had just got done swimming and had water in then. I had such a hard time hearing that I would have to have the TV up real loud to hear it. My doctor gave me some decongestant pills to take for 2 weeks. She said my ears would drain on their own but the medicine would speed it up.

I gte this from sinus infections. I have one now. The doctor said that I had fluid in the ear . He prescribed an antibiotic. Don't know if this is what you have, though!


Good luck!
