i poked myself in the ear with a qtip

[stev0]

deeper than normal i guess... now my hearing in that ear is all muffled. is there something that i can do to get it to 'unmuffle'? or should i just go to the doctor?

 

[JoeKing]

sitck another q-tip in there and push HARD

Only Jesus can save you now.

 

Poke a P-tip in the ear to reverse the process.

Does it hurt at all?

 

[Orsorum]

Shut up, brain, or I'll st@b you with a Q Tip!

 

[GroundZero]

didn't your mom tell you that the only things you should ever put in your ear is either your elbow or your tongue?

 

[tec699]

all mom ever said was what you should put in your ear, guess since she never said anything about what other people can put in your ear, anything goes!

Maybe you have compacted wax, pic.

If it doesn't hurt, and you aren't experienceing vertigo or any fluid in your ear, I would rule out PTM. Though it's still possible you mildly perforated the tympanic membrane. I say sleep on it, and if you still hear muffled sounds in the morning, go to the doctor. Make sure not to let any water get in your ear between now and then.

ok thats sick.

 

[TwinkleToes77]

you probably just jammed earwax onto your eardrum
it's not that big of a deal it will go away. dont stick anything in your ears! Qtips are only for cleaning the outside area of your ear, not the inner!

It's better then this

Oh and compacted earwax is fairly common.

get a spray bottle (or one of those things that you use to clean a baby's nose) fill it with a warm water and spray it in your ear over and over. It will loosen the wax and the wax will fall out of your ears. Don't push it in with a Q-Tip you tard 😉

Sleep on it, get a full night's rest. If it's still bad tomorrow go see your doctor. You have to be extremely careful with q-tips.
