decades old ear wax from otoscope movie
synopsis:
Both of my ears were so blocked with decades old of ear wax, I was nearly deaf, and applying the debrox ear drops caused period sharp head and ear pain to my left ear from the wax expansion.
The videos you are about to see will disgust you. Perfect for asubha practice.
After a few weeks of debrox ear drops and a few times by the doctor and myself flushing with water and spray bottle, my right ear was working properly again, but on the left ear that wax had blocked 95% of my left ear hearing.
After 8/5 visit with specialist, left ear fixed. The video of the ball of left ear wax (broken into two pieces) is massive. For scale in the video, the finger next to the wax, is my index finger (for size reference). Up close, the wax looks like a combination of feces, and heart attack artery clogging fat. Enjoy!
After watching video,
be sure to read this article for summary of proper ear maintenance.
7/12/2020
This is after 4 days of debrox ear drops and one doctor's visit which removed quite a lot of wax already.
left ear
7/13/2020 One day later,
applied debrox drops twice in both ears, about 10 hours apart,
between 15min and 30min lying down for each ear.
Right ear can hear and feel some of the chemical reaction, much less than yesterday.
Left ear, it broke through and can feel the drops dripping down deeper into canal, itching a little and sound of rice crispies with the wax dissolving, for about 20min or longer.
After flushing ears with water, new videos:
left ear: you can see compared to 24hrs ago, some of it dissolved away, you can see a little deeper into ear canal, whereas yesterday the camera was bumping right up against the thick layer of wax.
right ear: some more passage way cleared, you can see part of the ear drum now! major progress.
7/16 after another regular doctor with water flush, left side still blocked
7/16/2020 left ear scoop can't reach
7/16/2020 right ear mostly clear
7/16/2020 left ear completely blocked
8/5 two weeks later, specialist with special tools fixes problem in two minutes
he looked at right ear, didn't see it needed any more work.
8/5/2020 left ear wax vaccuum souvenirs from ear and nose specialist
8/5/2020 left ear clear
8/5/2020 right ear clear (from several days of debrox ear drops and self water flushing)
conclusion
I asked the ear and nose specialist what kind of maintenance I could do to prevent this problem in the future. He suggested one or two drops of mineral oil , maybe once a month. He said olive oil leaves yellow coloring that looks like wax, so better for clear oil.
