    if you can pop into London I recommend

    Clear Ear Clinic

    and let them suck the dirt and wax out of your ear. costs a few quid by worth it.

    they are proper ENT docs and nurses and do it all the time, so much better at it than a GP can ever be.

    I wouldnt recommend the usual NHS crap solution of oil, and anti biotics when it gets painful, thats just a dumbed down service. Every other Western nation would approach it like the clear ear clinic somehow I dont think the NHS is leading the world here.

      I wish I knew about these guys, I've had to get my ears done every year for nearly 20 years.

      Got the fright of my life in cloggers as they are still using old fashioned big metal syringes.

        The oil is purely to soften wax which has got hard and crusty, so the syringing can be effective. Doesn't the suction way also need you to soften it up a bit first?

          The harder the better when you're sucking, so I'm told.
          While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

              Whats wrong with a matchstick?
              Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                Jesus lord ladies. This is one of the most revolting threads I've ever seen on CUK.

                Sorry to hear (!) you're having issues though d000hg.

                    I think earwax would still win in the grossness stakes [for me].

                      How about if he creeps into your bedroom while you're asleep and bursts his foot blister into your ear to soften the wax?
