Bug in my ear. HELP!?!


Question: Bug in my ear!. HELP!!?
I went camping over the weekend and saturday night a nat or a small moth flew into my ear and started flapping around trying to get out!. Hurt like ****!. We tried drowning it, which we did!. Now it's dead!. I'm at home now with a dead moth/nat in my ear, and my mom used a baby serenge to squeeze warm water and soap into it!. We tried to squeeze the bug out, but it didn't work!. So, now I've got an ear that feels numb and it feels like I'm under water!. Can anyone tell me what to do now!? Also, can anyone tell me, can this make me go deaf or anything!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
You can try loading your ear up with peroxide, but if the moth is a big one, only a medical syringe will get it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Well you've done all the first aid that is recommended for this situation!. I've had a bug in my ear, I was laid on my side, ear up, and the filled my ear with slightly warm (25oC) mineral oil and waited, the bug detached and floated up and the picked it out of the oil!.

Yes, leaving a large foreign object like that can permanently damage your ear if it gets infected (assuming the fighting bug didn't damage anything on its own)!.

Other than trying the oil and waiting for 5 minutes go to the doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

This happened to me when I was in middle school!. My father took me to the emergency room to get the moth out!. There was no way I could have used a q-tip to get it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
