Ear Clogged - Can not hear well

[Reaper_mybb_import12521]

Well, I have quite the problem... I am on vacation and on Wednesday, my ear got clogged. It feels like I have an Ipod headphone bud in my ear, blocking sound. Please post any suggestions you can come up woth. As long as they're serious.

And, I have been trying Google.

Thanks.

Try putting more water.

Try putting more water.

Bad idea. xD

You could have an ear infection. You should see a doctor. They have ear drops that can unclog ears too.

It worked for me once.

I have tried ear drops with 95% alchohol. :/

Have you gone to the doctor?

 

[Reaper_mybb_import12521]

Not yet, it does not hurt btw.

Maybe a cockroach crawled in your ear. Try putting some bug spray in there.

Put a plunger up there, that's the most reasonable solvent!

It could been lightly swollen, I'd get a check-up at doctor just to be certain.

Could you imagine finding out in a week that your going deaf in one ear and you could've helped prevent it by going to the doctors.

Usually I can just hit myself in the head a couple times.

Brute force always works!

That was completely serious btw.

That would work if a liquid was stuck in your ear.

We're still not sure how @"Reaper" got his ear clog, he hasn't said yet.

Although if there was water in his ear, then his ear would have absorbed it by now.

It has been about 3 days, and I am fairly sure it's water because it hapoened after the pool.

3 days, water should have absorbed into your skin by now.

Perhaps there was something in the water that went in as the water did?

Most likely chlorine in the ear then. Try yawning, sneezing, coughing or jumping around with your head tilted to the side.

Try a Q-Tip. They always solve my ear problems.

If not, I'd go see a doctor as suggested before me.

I put my flat hand ageist my ear, push REALLY HARD. The only time I had water in my ear I did that and my ear started leaking for like... 30 minutes. It was SLOOW but I could hear.
