Jambo can't hear shit out my left ear it's like I'm underwater 
Been on the otex trip and it sorted me out for about a day and I did it again but I'm still blocked and no goo has come out.
I may be mental. But is it safe to use bicarb of soda and vinegar? Or will it destroy my ear drums?!
I'm pretty sure it wasn't the Jews the yanks or al quad so err help

Scoot, just try earbuds??? Lots safer, and goes just as deep.
Jambo, have you tried having your ears candled? Either that or siringed like mwg said.
My ears get cleaned every day via earplugs for the bike  Starts off green, ends up a yellowy blackish colour

ear buds are what started it all off. the ends are much thicker than a rolled up corner of bog roll. the last time i tried ear buds the end just pushed it all back.
you can buy stuff which softens it. do that for about a week and then take a trip to the nurse for some siringing. never had it but all shes does is spray warm water via a siringe (believe it or not) into the ear and it washes it out.

get this Jambo.
i've had loads of ear problems over 3-4yrs, went for a week or two without being able to hear properly.
finally went to doctors and got them syringed, didn't even need the doctor just a nurse.
felt amazing and had no problems since

You might even get a nice fit nurse to do it. The nurse at my doctors is an old bint though

Can't get them syringed as I have grommets apparently 
Got the ear candle thing and using Cotten buds is so bad that's why you get the wax build up as it pushes it to the part of the canal you can't get to and it hardens causing blockage
Also my mate burst his eardrum with a qtip

Ear candles
"As of 2008, there are at least two cases in which people have set their houses on fire while ear candling, one of which resulted in death."

My sister is a beauty therapist so she's trained to use them and I'm not a fucktard so chances of that happening are slim

What the fuck are ear candles?
I've had mine syringed with jets of water twice. Best thing ever as I can hear an ant fart afterwards.

They stick a big candle in your ear then light it and it supposedly draws the wax out. I've had it done in the past and it did precisely fuck all!

Ear candles are great, the amount of wax they drag out is amazing.

they dont work. I had a record amount of wax come out of my ear when i had it syringed and it was no way near the amount ear candles 'draw out'.
