Ear candles!! Sounds weird but they're awesome. Look it up on the 'net to find out more, you can get them at health stores or find out specific places when you look it up. They really work GREAT!! Try it, you'll be glad you did.

I had the wax cleaned from my ears by a ear, nose and throat doctor, but it is something you could do at home. He used a large syringe filled with warm water and force the water into my ear, catching the water and wax with a small basin under my ear. It felt strange but, worked. If you have lost hearing you should go see a doctor ASAP, you could have damaged something inside you ear with the q-tip.

Go to the doctor and get them to irrigate your ear. Or maybe they will prescribe some earwax removal drops. Or you could just go to the store and buy some of those drops OTC

if you go to a drug store,there sre some ear drops especially for ear wax.im not too sure of the name,but it is intended for softening the wax to allow it to flow out freely.this really works.i used to work drive thru for years,and wearing the headsets would cause poor air circulation to my ears.that eventually caused the wax to somewhat harden and clog my ears.im sure you an find them at walmart also.ask the pharmasist to assist you.i wish you luck and good thinng you are reading this.........not listening to it,lol !

50/50 hydrogen peroxide and very warm water tilt head to side and let soak in ear...if u have a ear plunger, look like a mucous puller for infants noses...works well

You can warm olive oil, i know it is gross and put that in your ear and it loosens all the wax. you can go to a spa and have an ear candle done, - that draws all the wax out, or if it is really bad you can have them syringed.

use debrox drops, it loosens ear wax so it can easily be removed with water. can also use sweet oil to keep things loose and coming out in the shower. if these things dont work, please go in to the doctor, they can use an ear wash machine that will be alot easier and wont harm your ear. goodluck.

some people have that problem and have to go to the Dr's too get it blown out..All you can do is pour peroxide and water into your ear and see what comes out but may not be safe for you to do.

how can you use a q tip in your ear? I think that's what cause your hearing problem. using a q tip in your ear is as stupid as using a jackhammer in your ear. GO SEE A DOCTOR

Use a javelin with a sheep attached to the end of it and give your ear a tweak with it.
