I need to get so wax out of my ear but I don't want to spend 200 dollars at the doctors. The last time I used a lavage kit from the drug store it didn't work too well and I got an ear infection and I don't think sticking stuff in myself is a good idea. Are there any sort of businesses I can go to less expensive or am I better off simply getting someone at home to help me?
I can hear but, it feel like I have pressure in my ear and as though the right ear only. I also hear slight ringing at times including small clicking noises randomly. I have a 3rd follow up appointment w/ my ENT on Thursday. The 2 hearing tests at this point show loss of low frequency and voices sound high pitched in the right ear.
Should I be going to a specialist? I suggested that I had water in my inner ear but, the doctor will not agree.
I was dumb enough to try ear candling even though studies show it doesn't do what is intended. People swear it helps them and I had been having congested ears. Long story short hot wax from the candle dripped into my ear and now I am in pain. This morning a piece of "candle" wax came out of my ear but I am almost certain there is more in there. My hearing is muffled and when i move my head while sleeping the crackling wakes me up. Any advice or solutions?
On Monday morning I woke with an ear infection. I went to the doctor right away and was given Otic Edge, told to continue an antibiotic I was already on, to call if it wasn't felling better in a couple of days, and to schedule a recheck for a week later. Thursday, my ear still felt plugged, I was getting sharp pains, and ringing so I went back to the doctor. He said that there is alot of drainage in there and it kinda looked like swimmer's ear.
My husband is a doctor so we have exhausted the medical community, ENT, neurologist, internal medicine, chiropractic and all tests, MRI, CAT scan and the official vertigo test at the ENT. Nothing found anything. I finally heard about ear candling. I used 5 in one ear and 6 candles in the other and had INSTANT relief and these candles were full of wax and yeast. I will be repeating this as a preventative measure once a month or more often if needed but I finally have relief.
Hello,
I went to see a doc this morning for my right ear. I have had a cold for about a week and last night my right ear plugged up, start ringing and discharging fluid so I figured I had an infection. The doc said that the right ear was indeed infected although it had no wax build up and the left had a large amount of wax build up wasn't infected. He told me that I should get a ear wax removal kit for the left when I have the time.
I had a herpes test done last year and tea tested postive again for hsv 1 with a type specific of 2.09 and HSV 2 type specific 1.75 now I got tested this year and my HSV 1 is 2.11 and HSV 2 is 2.4. I am confused as to why the numbers have changed. I have never had an outbreak so was in shock when I found out I had it. I called quest to have a western blot test but thu said they don't do it. I called the university and they are goin to send me the kit to have it don't.
I'm from the houston area myself and drove up to Conroe community wellness center to get a biokit done, they drew blood and I waited a half hour to see the negative results myself! I had a low positive 1.8 and went to do the biokit but I feel I did it early at 11.5 weeks post possible exposure and plan to do another biokit at 16 weeks. It cost 40 bucks.
Sore throat, enlarged neck and under ear lymph nodes and slightly painfull, my ear feels plugged and pops when i swallow and my right eye started to have a slight pain around it.
I tested on the 5th week with 4th generation combo and Rna and both came negative. And oraquick in home swab test 3 times. All came negative.
Should i trst again? Or that is conclusive?
HOUSTON – A registered sex offender in Houston is charged with raping a 14-year-old girl and a 2-year-old girl and infecting them with HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.
The 33-year-old man was charged this week with super-aggravated sexual assault of a child and sexual assault of a child. Houston police say he raped his ex-girlfriend's teenage daughter and his infant niece.
The investigation began in 2013 when the younger child was brought to the Texas Medical Center.
Ladies if any of you mommas live in Houston contact me, I'm 20 with a two year old boy and 5 months pregnant with another little boy. I need some mommy friends!!
Hi Curtis,
An infection has probably set in. Wound may need to be drained and your kit will need antibiotics. He must see the Vet Today!!
This is serious and he is probably in a great deal of pain.
Good effort to help him, but beyond your expertise now.
Please let us know what the vet has to say, we all learn from each others experience.
Good Luck and hope the little guy feels better real soon.
