Ear Blockage

Omg! my worse fear has returned. After being diagonosed as a patient who often gets ear problem; be it infection, fungal or just mere blockage due to excessive wax, i am pretty afraid of this scenario although experience is in my hands. Specialists in the past had treat me well but i cant believe i still have to endure this again. Is it because of my love for swimming or my itchy hand which disturbs the natural removal of the wax?? Ear wax, which is also called the cerumen by scientist are usually auto-removed by natural process and can be enhanced by the movement of our own jaw! There are many ways that it can removed, with practically 95% General Practitioner going for the syringing method. For this, the water used must be warm and be in temperature closed to our body temperature, just to prevent any dizzy side effects. Syringing process is the first ear wax removal procedure in my life. Though i do remember it is a little warm, it still give some dizzy effects and some pain too. The specialists in UMMC never used this but prefer only the vaccum process under the microscope. They believed that water might damage the ear canal or ear drums if there is any holes on it. Now that its raya time and all hospitals are closed, i feel so sick and traumatised. The feeling of losing your hearing on one side for two HELL days is CRAZY. That is the only time u feel like living like OKU. Anyway, hope all these will be ok soon.
