[QUOTE="buddy, post: 485509, member: 12886"] Oh for sure it could be both.... Instead of q tips for now, let the hot water go into your ear canals to melt the wax out... then use a cloth to get it so you dont compact the wax down. If you catch some of the wax that is stuck to your ear drum it can actually pull it out and cause a hole. Now that hurts! I had a hole in a drum once from an infection blowing it out. really painful and I knew the moment it happened. There are drops with glycerin and peroxide and I think mineral oil that can help keep it under control too. Sorry I am being so gross guys.... just tons of years doing ear stuff, taking care of hearing aides etc. My undergrad program didn't have an audiology undergrad only grad so we did all the audiology stuff (all speech paths have some audiology and all audiology have some speech path hours). So yucky ear stuff is kind of my thing. tee hee. [/QUOTE]
