Title: Ear Wax Candles
Post by: Mysteryman on June 10, 2008, 02:31:02 PM
Where can I buy some ear wax candles in store? I saw some on the Vitamin Shoppe website. I was just wondering if there are any major stores I can get them at?

I thought I heard these were dangerous and weren't very effective.  I would use good ole fashioned warm water and the little bulb like tool.

I think I have OCD when it come to ear wax. I clean my ears every single day with Q-tips.

They say that only pushes the ear wax further into the ear canal.

I dont even give it much of a chance to build up. Ear wax really irritates me, especially when it is hot outside.

Sorry if thats too much info

Been there, done that.  If you have never had an ear infection believe me you don't want one.  :'(

Qtips aren't good. They just push the wax further in the ear causing problems. Use peroxide to clean your ears. It works well...

I don't really use Q-tips to get the wax out, I just want to stop the itching.  The feeling when u put those things in your ears, AAAAAHHHHHHH, it feels like Heaven.  And mess around and have one in each ear at the same time, extasy!!!  :D  ;D  :D

Now I will say when I was younger I went swimming. When I got home I was watching tv laying on the floor on my side with my hand holding my head. When I got up all the wax that was in my ears was on my hands. :D I was surprised at the amount that came out. I guess it was from the water pressure and the suction from my hands.

Thats exactly it. I didnt want to admit it, but It does feel very very good. A while ago, I cleaned my ears so much that i got some kinda infection that hurt like a mug. I had to put these greasy ear drops in my ear that felt worse than the ear wax.

I honestly cant remember, I applied to so many jobs that I lost track of what I applied to. Its probaly either an administrative Assistant position or a computer specialist/data entry job. I would be working for weight watchers. I hope they have a generous employee discount on their products. :D

IYeah they do feel very, very, good,lol but it ain't worth it. I didn't have any problem with ear infection until I started messing with qtips. I haven't used them in a while. They are so addictive. Once you start using them you want them everytime your ear itches. Your finger is just not good enough anymore............. where did I hide that last box of qtips !!!???lol

Keep in mind the ear wax serves a purpose and that's to trap stuff like bacteria or even debris that could get in your ear and infect it.

This is my method of choice as well.  The effervesence is heavenly. 

The candle thing is way too much to go through just to get out some ear cheese.

You'll may want to warm it just a little in warm water. Room temp is fine though. You pour about half a capful in your ear (that's still probably more than you will need). Make sure your head is tilted so it won't run right out. Let it stay in for a few seconds or more (the longer the better) and then let it run out on some papertowel or something. It will tingle some while it's in there. Just don't use a qtip afterward, lol. You will be tempted. You can do this a few times.


For those of you who have ear aches sweet oil is good. I keep it. You warm it and pour some in your ear. It's so soothing.

I was told most people need do nothing more than use a washcloth to get what bubbles up off. Earwax is not dirt but a protectant.

My grandmother used to put sweet oil in my ears but quite honestly it made my ears hurt.

I've endured a lot of painful ear infections since I was a baby and my fear is if I do this then it'll turn into an ear infection.

Where did you buy it at?  Is this just for ear infections or does it help remove ear wax as well?

You can buy sweet oil at any drug store, wal-mart, wal-greens, well...those type of stores, lol. I don't know about cleaning the ears but it helps when I have earaches.

If you have "ear infection" the best thing to do is go to the doctor. That's when you have ear pain, fever, dizziness, and just don't feel well. Only if your ear hurts would I suggests over the counter stuff.
