faded you can not imagine the relief. Even the nurse was shocked how badly my ears were clogged with wax. Thank goodness it wasn't the eardrum that I was afraid it was going to be. When she cleaned them out I let out an audible AHHHHHHHH and went oh my god. The other ear was even bad too and she was shocked I could hear out of it. The piece of wax that came out, shit you not, was like the size of a beetle. Amazed something like that could even get clogged in here.

Thanks to all you comrades for the well wishes.

get a turkey baster/snot sucker and when you shower, GENTLY spray warm water into each ear while holding your head sideways so the wax falls out

I have had overactive ear wax production for most of my adult life and have had to have them cleaned multiple times. The drops they give me don't work, the remedies involving hydrogen peroxide don't work and actually make things worse. Just gently clean out your ears every day and you will never randomly go deaf again
