I went for a flight physical a couple weeks ago and my doc (a good friend) mentioned that I had some wax buildup in my right ear. Never had a problem before so sorta forgot about it. A couple days later, holy chit, my right ear was plugged! Tried everything, Debrox, hydrogen peroxide, etc. to no avail. Went to urgent care and they used one of
these which is like a power washer for the ear. They put the cup under my ear to catch what came out, looked like I just changed the oil in my car...Doc tells me I should do preventative maintenance instead...get some mineral oil, put some in your ear while in the shower, then use the little suction thingie that came in the Debrox kit to clean it out with warm water.
