Clogged ear for almost 4 weeks. I'm slightly scared. Help?!
Question: Clogged ear for almost 4 weeks. I'm slightly scared. Help?
But I'm pretty sure it's not ear wax. I've used Q-Tips and nothing is ever on them.
I think it's BEHIND the ear drum.
Around the beginning of the third week my ear hurt REALLY bad when I would swallow.
I talked to an herbalist and she gave me some type of tea, so I drank that.
So the hurting stopped, then I got really sick. (Just got over it around Tuesday)
Now when I yawn I can hear my ear crackling a little inside. If I push up on the lower part of my ear, then pull, it pops, but I can't hear any differently. The sound is very muffled. Some days are better than others.
What can I do about this?
I have HEARD that putting a few drops of hydrogen peroxide in the ear for a 15 seconds every day can help. Is this true?
I don't want to go to the doctors. I really don't. Hospitals have scared me since I was a child. I haven't been to the doctors in 12 years. I'm seventeen right now.
I'm mainly interested in what type of herbs I can take for this. Herbal teas, herbal capsules, that sort of thing. I don't trust doctors.
Thank you for your help if you can help.

oh for crying out loud. You'd rather go deaf through wasting your time and taking quack treatments than going to see someone with medical training who can diagnose and help.
Herbalists are not medically trained, are not doctors and cannot treat you properly.
Your ears, your life, your choice.
this has happend to me. there is something where you put wax or somthin in your ear and i hear that works great.or you can lay on a heating pad for a while that drained my ear but it took bout a week it mite work quicker for you.
good luck srry im not that good with ears
Put a drop or two of hydrogen peroxide in your ear and allow it to stay for at least three minutes and when the time is up, you can tilt your head and allow the dirt and water to come out of your ear. Then you may use a syringe to spray some clean warm water in your ear to flush the wax out. Put some in the morning and at night before you go to sleep and continue this process until the block is removed
