If you suspect that your ear canal is blocked, you should seek help from an otolaryngologist.

However, if you are sure that it is due to earwax, you can try to remove it yourself.

First of all, try to chew something actively.

If this step does not lead to the desired result, you can use folk methods that involve the use of hydrogen peroxide, glycerin or oil - almond, olive, baby, camphor or Vaseline will do.

You need to lie on your side with the “injured” ear facing up.

Add 2-3 drops of the chosen product, after warming it to room temperature.

Wait a few minutes, then tilt your head so that the fluid flows out of the ear.

These manipulations should be repeated twice a day until the plug comes out. On average, it takes two weeks to achieve the set goal.

Please note: doctors do not recommend putting anything in your ears without first being examined by a specialist.
