The specialists recommend the following: Lay your head on one side and place two drops of any of the following oils inside the ear: Liquid Glycerin, mineral oil or almond oil. Allow the oil to penetrate into the ear. Do the same with the other ear, when you stand up the oil will come out, leaving only enough oil to soften the wax.
The next day, get a dropper and fill it with lukewarm water. Lay your head to one side and tilt it slightly downward. Put two drops of water slowly into the ear. Allow it to flow in and carry away the softened wax. Do this for two days. Dry your ear with a hair dryer or put in a drop of alcohol in order to get the rest of the water out. If your ears are stopped up and you cannot hear well, the following is recommended : Mix one tablespoon of glycerin and one tablespoon of salt in 1/2 a glass of boiled water. With a dropper put 10 drops in each nostril as many times as it is necessary to open the ducts that go from the nostrils to the middle ear. The liquid will drain through the throat.
Warning : In some cases, it is necessary to operate in order to drain the ear. If the infection persists, consult your physician.
