Suggest Treatment For Blocked Ear
I used an earbud to clean out the wax in my ear and when I took the earbud out, the ear got blocked. It s been blocked for 5 days now... I m thinking to buy ear drops but I m not sure and now when I hiccup or burp it hurts my ear. Should I be worried? Any help will be appreciated.

Hi , Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum .
Your clinical history is suggestive of ear wax or trauma to ear canal during cleaning .
If I were your treating Doctor for this case , I would advice you
Keep ear dry , don’t allow water go inside while bath &
Start wax dissolving ear drop like soliwax 5 drops five times/day for 5 days.
Get it clean from ENT Specialist after 5 days with suction under microscope.
Hope above information helpful to you , take care.
Thanks.
