getting your ears syringed??

getting your ears syringed??

has anyone had this done before whats it like? my left ears playing up bad and i've been told if i get this done it would clear it right out, my mate had it done and said it was one of the worst feeling hes ever had tho, so im unsure whether to go or not

Re: getting your ears syringed??

ive never had it done so cant comment too much. however, if its just a general clean, i use cotex drops as mine get quite a wax build up from djing, cotex is very good, available from most chemists

Re: Re: getting your ears syringed??

ill go give that a go, its been bothering me for ages, i was having a mix yesterday and my left ear blocked up, i couldnt hear a thing

Its not that bad to be fair, its annoying when it gets done but isnt paid thats un-bearable really.

I have had mine done a fair few times and it does the job

thanks, ill try the drops first but tbh i think ill need to get it done, my left ears been playing up for ages now

Re: Re: Re: getting your ears syringed??

the beauty of using cotex is as you put it in, you hear a cracklin start as it breaks down the build up and your hearing gets better straight away, tis fab!

the next time i step into the outside world ill purchase some

Put warm olive oil drops in your ear for 3-4 days before getting it done to soften the wax.

It's the lushest feeling like, unless your ear is infected in which case it can hurt a fair bit, but it doesn't last long and it's nice (in a twisted kind of way) to see all the wax gunk that comes out.

I've got a really nasty ear infection at the minute, it's making me feel well ill and the antibiotics aren't working.

nah i havnt got an infection, its just built up from over the years or seeing too many bands then clubbing, too much loud music

Then doooooooooooooooo it..!

Last time I had mine done, when the nurse was finished I was suddenly aware that I was in a room with the window open and a train going by.. it's amazing what a difference it makes.

ill try the drops, if all fails then ill go for the bad boy syringe

haha aye that happens to me, the worst is when your mixing tho and your ears blocks up, i thought id gone deaf the first time it'd happened

it doesnt hurt at all. All they do it gently pump a bit of warm water into your ear, and the wax come out.

The difference once you have it done is amazing.....u dont realise how shit ur hearing is till they do it.

As above - it doesn't hurt at all. Its a weird tingling feeling - quite soothing actually.

When you come out, you'll hear things that you've never heard before. Deffo put drops in for a few days before. They may not do it otherwise

Where do you get this done, GP or A&E? My left ear is in the same nick - combination of the swimming pool and Chemical Brothers.

Im sure you have plenty kicking about

i got water trapped in my left right ear when on holiday nearly 4 years ago

still hasnt been the same since, i need mine syringing as well
