Question:
I recently bought some ear cleaner,Just thought maybe I should clean them out.Now since I put the drops in a few days ago,I have a ear ache in one ear.Anyone have a good answer to this? Not a stupid comment!! Thanks!
Answers:
You may still have water trapped by earwax in there. Don't use alcohol, which will irritate your ear to dry up any excess water. You could try to keep using the bulb syringe, but this may make your ear hurt worse.
I suggest you make an appointment with your doctor ASAP to rule out an infection and/or to have the doctor clean them out for you, which works much better than the OTC stuff.
Whatever you do, never use Q-tips, which can push the earwax further into your ear (impacted cerumen) which is quite unpleasant, and you will have to have a doctor clear it out, or even worse, you could puncture your eardrum. The drops are much, much safer.

wax is a natrel protecter of the ears and it protects your ears forom infection and otitis externa (swimmers ear) witch you can get in the shower. so do not clean them that often and go see a docter.
You shouldn't use things like that. My sister good an infection after using an ear cleaner. It might say that it cleans them out but really it is dangerous. I suggest you stick to Q-Tips.
