@@crow7580 I use 35% all the time, but when I ask for it at any store other than where I normally buy it, EVERY PERSON looks at me like I've got 10 heads. 3% is what most people are used to because that's what you normally buy at the pharmacy.
I lightly wet a Q-Tip with hydrogen peroxide. I wipe it around the outside of my ear, it runs into and lightly cleans any extra wax out and I tip my head and drain them use a dry Q-Tip to clean the excess liquid. I do not clean my ears internally with Q-Tips. That is a bad idea. But that’s what works for me, I do this maybe 2 times a month and I’ve never had any problems.
Thanks for the video. One caveat: You didn't provide any instructions on how to apply the oil or whether or not you need to flush it. A demonstration would have been helpful.
I put a little lavandar oil in back of ear between ear lobe and skull. do not put oil inside the ear. It helps with itching, dizziness and aids in removing wax but so does hydrogen peroxide. However hydrogen peroxide cannot be done daily but the oil can. Hope this helps.
It was recommended to me to use hp, but I know that it removes thin layers of dead skin, & can harm the eardrum possibly. Also, I do have a ruptured drum, so this video was incredibly helpful. Thanks Doc!
You are perfectly right hydrogen peroxide is not a great choice, especially with soft wax. Baby oil or olive oil is much safer. Debrox works if you give it time and repeat applications in one setting.
Good video on H Peroxide. I recently had my ear wax removed but then had crackling of water in the ear. So, added baby oil for relief and now feels like my ear is plugged up. Would peroxide solve the problem?
I do this everytime ear plugs up just my right ear. I have tried everything under the sun . The nasal rinse. The ear softener olive oil etc .someone told me years ago to try this omg it was amazing I only use when my ear plugged up. This is the best ever. Leave it in 15 to 20 minutes . And when I lift my head wow the stuff that comes out
@@ggsinl4031 it does not hurt! I use the cap on the hydrogen peroxide bottle, tilt my head and pour it in while looking at a mirror. I let it sit for a while and put my head right up basically back into the normal position. I do that over and over until I can hear again! After that just take out all the wax!
@Hidan When youve let it sit for the time specified above, all you gotta do is tip your head the other way and bunch up a kleenex over the entrance to the ear canal, dont shove in just let it drain out. Otherwise, if you have one of those ear wax flushers from any medical store/ has a pharmacy they usually sell them there. Very useful if you want to make sure you get everything 😊 Also, sorry idk why my tag didnt work :(
I heard Dr Mandel about the use of hydrogen peroxide for removal of earwax.he never mentioned about its strength.i used 6 strength nd now I am having ear pain nd inflammation.i applied it two days ago.
@@syedshah2569 6% strength is ok. If you have inflammation then you might go to a pharmacy to ask for some ear drops for the inflammation. For some relief you can put a small amount of Sigmacort 1% cream on a cotton bud. Sigmacort 1% cream is a cortisone cream which will ease the inflammation. I use this often for my ears to ease inflammation. Use cream not ointment version. I think the use of 3% hydrogen peroxide is not good for tissue skin health in ears, it does help with ear wax if you use it many times in the day, but the removal of the surface wax from the skin tissue inside the ear allows the skin to become irritated.
I use it when it's gets absolutely clogged, the key is giving it time to work work and doing it multiple times. Then a nice shower to help rinse it out, then a nice walk to help dry it up and get out whatever is left.
There ya go. I’m not sure if “clogged” is when I do it. You just know. Every 2-3 months I’ll do 30 minutes each ear. If clogged, you’ll know it within 24 hrs. Do another 30 minutes per ear again. Been doing it 35 years. Keeps disease away, sickness. Ears, the first area that gets attacked. And the stronger the better for me. Never dilute.
I used it to unclog my left ear. It took 2 days because I was scared to use it for too long. I didn't go to a doctor because I was on a business trip, and I didn't know the area. So, I went to a pharmacy to get hydrogen peroxide - just to see if it would help. It creates a bubbling effect. It also turned my fingertips white, but that disappeared within a few hours. I dipped a piece of cotton wool into 3% hydrogen peroxide. I then inserted the dipped piece of cotton wool into my left ear while I was lying down on my right side (my left ear was facing up). As the solution bubbled (quite a lot) inside my ear, I used clean cotton wool pieces to absorb the peroxide solution. I did this for 2 days (10 minutes). Be careful when doing this - don't let it into your eyes. And wash your hands thoroughly before and after. It saved me quite a bit of money to do myself. However, I would rather just in the future go to a doctor as I didn't know whether it could damage my eardrum, etc. I was very hesitant with the solution, but I was also very grateful that it worked since I was quite desperate.
Anyone ever put a q-tip in their ear and not even put it in barely any. Just barely stuck it in your ear and suddenly all the wax just gets squished to the back and now you lost 60% of your hearing in that ear?
Or worse put it in your ear for awhile and then inadvertently whack it through your ear drum with a hair dryer….? Don’t ply with w-tips except to detail your instrument panel
So...I'll state. I tried using H2O2 in my ears. And yes...I probably used too much. I took a "1/2 cap full into each canal...not 3-4 drops. I was too aggressive. I moved massive amounts of wax out...but hopefully NOT at the long term detriment to my "right ear drum"...as I'm not hearing well out of it currently -post 12 hours later. Learn from me...use 3-4 drops And Do USE AN EYE DROPPER to regulate the amounts. Also...don't let it stay in over 2 minutes...let it drain...take a break..then perhaps do 2-3drops the following day. Be conservative.
I disagree, the idea is to basically fill the canal or half fill it, a few drops is nowhere near enough, but yes use a dropper. Leave it in for about 4 or 5 minutes while massaging the back of your ear a little to move the wax around, allow it to drain out then repeat. Do this about 5 times in a row. The reason you find hearing has worsened is because you have not done it thoroughly enough, you have simply softened the wax now it sticks to your eardrum.
@@vvidover how can you prevent that? I tried it today..put 3 drops in and stayed for 5 minutes. Then drained it by moving head in opposite direction. Only some wax came out and rest is staying there. What should I do?
@BeyondSpace Don’t worry yourself about it. The doctor will be able to flush it out. I’ve had my ears flushed out a few times with no problems. It feels a bit weird but it’s fine. They prefer if you use a product to soften the wax for a few days before you get them flushed out, makes it easier for the wax to be flushed out, but you don’t have to do that.
Thanks for no BS on it being completely bad...saw some doctor on Rachel Ray say you should not put it on a wound...use it in hospitals all the time don't they. Have to love being told the old way is wrong just because...ego says it is...this is a balanced view.
Hydrogen peroxide would complicate things if earwax has made infection. Simple rule- if u have pain(infection) go to doctor. If its just ear blocked use peroxide

Not approved for dogs,>>>Should You Use Hydrogen Peroxide to Clean Dog Ears? No. Don’t use hydrogen peroxide on your pup. This common household product can actually cause irritation to healthy skin cells. Ears contain very sensitive tissue, and extended use of hydrogen peroxide could eventually lead to damage of the ear itself. Stick to veterinarian-approved cleaners.
Would you get over an ear infection faster by using hydrogen peroxide? (I get that there might be more pain, but if it cuts recovery time I wouldn't mind if there's no permanent damage.)
No. This will remove the protective wax which will not be good. Wax is produced for a good reason, to protect the tissue. Only use it to attend to an excess build up.
The gulp I had when he said there are some downside since I’m doing this with it in my ear I’m just trying to know when to flip because I just did ut and didn’t know if if I was supposed to wait because nun came out and my ear was still wet
Probably the most important specification that the good doctor neglected to mention... 3% seems to be the universally accepted concentration for this application
Not much. Just means there wasn't enough wax present to cause the hydrogen peroxide to decompose into water and oxygen gas. The fizzing is caused by the oxygen escaping the liquid.n
@@xmrcy6012 Well, most people don't need to do this in the first place. The ear cannal is self cleaning and ear wax is essential to maintaining a healthy ear. It traps bacteria, viruses, and other debris as well as picks up dead skin cells. It's constantly moved out of the ear canal via cilia and the motion of the jaw when chewing or speaking. It also helps maintain the correct amount of moisture. Cleaning your ears too often can actually cause the glands to over produce. That being said, there are some people who, for whatever reason, naturally produce abnormally large amounts or wax that is dryer than usual. It's usually down to genetics and/or age and is not a reflection of the person's hygiene habits. If you chose to use hydrogen peroxide, 3-5 drops should be plenty. Remain on your side for roughly 5 minutes, and blot any excess if you need to. Repeat for the other ear. ***DO NOT*** use a q-tip or swab. It's quite easy to inflict damage that way. The point of the H2O2 is to soften the wax enough that it can move out on its own. If, at any point, you experience pain, burning, itching, or other discomfort, stop use and see your primary care provider. ***Disclaimer*** Please always see your PCP before trying any new home treatment. I am still in medical school as well as I don't know anything about your history. The above is just for general information and not meant to replace the advice of your MD or serve any diagnostic or treatment purposes.
@@xmrcy6012 I'm not comfortable speculating about that without a history and exam. But I will say that it's not all that uncommon. It's pretty common, especially as you get older, and can have a lot to do with one ear being exposed to loud noise more often... especially if you've been the type to only wear one ear bud or something similar. If it's bothersome or significant and you've never had a work up,
Leave it in for about 30sec. I've heard you can leave it in until it stops bubbling, but it's probably over doing it. Make sure it's 3%. Two or three drops are enough. Don't use a cotton swab inside your ear to remove the hydrogen peroxide. The farthest anything should be going inside your ear is what your finger can reach, so only remove the wax there. And only do it once a week for two months to avoid issues. This should only be used for minor wax build up, I'm pretty sure. If you're having trouble hearing, you should go see a doctor instead to have your ears cleaned.
Specially if you have an ropture eardrum rapture cause by an infection or a swimmers ear condition when water temps to stay strap causing the infection that's keeps reoccurring and the water been trapped cousin progressive ear infection do the water the ear canal is no longer able to travel farder in to ear canal system cause by bacteria on swimming waters

Hydrogen peroxide is an acid not a base 🤦♂️
Exactly
Thank you ;D
Only got olive oil 😢
I like to see demonstrations not talk talk talk
Hey, better than canceling. Had a kid with significant burns to his face beacuse dumb parents. 🤷♀️
come out with all the irritation and doest give advice on the percentage, 3% - 5% max
When do I remove it like take it out
Leave it in for about 30sec. I've heard you can leave it in until it stops bubbling, but it's probably over doing it. Make sure it's 3%. Two or three drops are enough. Don't use a cotton swab inside your ear to remove the hydrogen peroxide. The farthest anything should be going inside your ear is what your finger can reach, so only remove the wax there. And only do it once a week for two months to avoid issues. This should only be used for minor wax build up, I'm pretty sure. If you're having trouble hearing, you should go see a doctor instead to have your ears cleaned.
I'm 15 should I do it
@@slimshady5596 Yah. You'll be fine.
@@ponydroid5630 and I do I take it out when I’m done
