is everyone allowed their own ear wax thread?

I saw an ENT doctor last year and he suctioned out my left ear, it seemed to take close to 5 minutes and was incredibly painful, do not recommend

oh no! Mine was not painful at all.. even though it did vaguely feel like giving birth to a small alien. The aural sensation is extremely unpleasant

but there's a catharsis when it's over, at least in my case.. I actually cried lol

I'm getting mine done every three or four months (for some reason) and my experience is definitely much closer to Moodles'.

I have a bum ear so I get the suction often and I love it. It always feels amazing to me.

I should do this. I usually have blocked ears for about 3 months a year until it naturally clears. Once I got my ears syringed at the surgery and it was incredibly painful

I did the home wax cleaning thing a couple years back (with the bubbly peroxide solution and the rubber bulb to rinse it out) and a few days later I got a gnarly case of vertigo... I thought I'd had a stroke for a minute until I did a little research

Anyway, I'm just gonna let that stuff drop out when it's ready

narrator voice: it will never be ready

what if the wax is all that's holding my brain in?

only one to find out!

narrator: there were other ways to find out

nothing more satisfying than when a big waxy pachinko ball decides to drop down the chute on its own accord

Is this ear wax vacuuming maybe just a UK thing? Doesn't seem to be as much a thing in the USofA

I see a lot of banner ads that are all "If you have tinnitus, do this easy thing at home" and it's fucking annoying because I know it's all bullshit
