Thanks for being such a great sport Heather!

Good video I ad my ears cleaned years ago, at a hospital with peroxide and warm water, they washed it pout with a syringe.... I now do it myself that same way with a bulb syringe... this Earwax MD sounds great I will try it soon. I have a lot of itching all the time. Great Video Doc!! Thumbs up Heather!!

This was an amazing video! I found this video after watching your other video about earwax candling. My dad’s hearing was so impacted by wax buildup that we had to practically shout for him to hear us. After using this product at home ONCE, his hearing improved by at least 500%.His regular doctor prescribed him debrox which had little to no effect.

I bought Debrox in October 2023 and used it in December after getting an earwax buildup since January that year. It did work but only to an extent. Maybe I might try EarwaxMD, hope it works

You are a savior, thank you. This and the master blaster md saved my hearing, I was scepticle but I went to the store a second time and bought the master blaster and kept the drops in for an hour and then blasted it all out with water because it wasn’t working completely and I was so dead in my right ear that I was having panic attacks, so thank you.

This stuff works! After not being able to get an appointment with an ENT for two weeks, I figured I would try anything to unblock my ear. I tried four days of Debrox and flushed with an elctronic earigator I bought, and nothing. I tried it again and nothing. Finally, I watched your video and got myself some Earwax MD. After the first use quite a bit of wax came out. I can feel there is more in there, so in a couple of days I will do it again. Once I get it fully clear, I am going to use this stuff monthly, and hopefully, I will not have this issue again. Thank you for such a great review!!

I want to thank you for this product review DR. it worked great for me It took 2 Tries to remove the plug first time let it stay in for an hour and flushed it out few pieces came out then let it rest and tried the next day again another hour and flushed what a big relief 😅 it felt when it popped out and I could hear again was getting worried that I was deaf in that ear 🙉 so THANK YOU FOR THIS PRODUCT REVIEW

ANSWERED Prayer/Info: Thank You so Much, Dr. Cliff!! GOD BLESS YOU!!

Thanks a bunch Sunshine English for sharing this video. I really like the storyline. I'm waiting for the next episode 🙏

I love the part where that q tip goes flying! My cats favorite thing for whatever reason is a q tip! She saw that part and tried to attack the tv screen! Thanks for the hilarious laugh Dr!

Great video, Dr. Olson! When I was 7 years old in 1956 and 27 in 1976 I had to have impacted ear wax that was so deep that the doctor had difficulty in seeing it and and when he finally did, it had to be dug out. Water irrigation didn't work either time. It was extremely painful when a nerve or something down there was hit. Each time the amount of earwax was over a half inch long and very nasty! I've had the same feeling in my left ear for the last 25+ years, but the doctors have never been able to see anything. I may give Ear Wax MD a try to see if it might help. Please keep those great videos coming!

Thanks for posting this. Can you give ideas to those of us who wear hearing aids?

You’re the most informative doctor here. What is wrong when you put peroxide in your ear then tilt head so peroxide flows out...only it stays in . Is it stuck behind the wax or in the middle or inner ear. Further irrigation attempts were not made. I irrigated my sinuses daily and also am about to have work done on a couple of back molars that had root canals gone bad. My same ear has been problematic for years. An MRI only revealed a blue crayon. Lol srsly tho, no unusual signs, so what can I do before my appt with my ENT?

I appreciate all your videos. May I suggest that you include a demonstration of how to use this product at home: how to do it, what to expect, and when a user should know to contact a professional.

@@wizardninja7gaming764 That's not true. The Dr says, in this very video, that this is the best home remedy to remove earwax but he suggests a different suction apparatus than the one that comes with it. Why would he say that if you are meant to go to the doctor to have it removed. In fact, I'm pretty sure he mentions a couple of times that this can be done at home.

I am quite satisfied with the product you endorse. I am 84 year and got my hearing aids from the VA. I had a very severe explosion near my right ear I was given a Phonak pair valued about 7k $ The right ear was harder to hear starting some 60 years ago.

Really liked your video. I have a hole in my ear drum but it happened when I was a kid I am now in my seventies can I use the spray bottle with just warm water? I have wax in my ear my grand daughter looked in my ear with oteoscope and saw the wax

Great video about this product ,my son averages a visit minimum one time a year, I hope this helps us and thank you for sharing this hopeful video for us....

I once had a nurse use a hand held irrigator to remove some earwax, but the process must have taken 20 minutes with the last minutes hurting. A doctor who was near retirement did the same thing in seconds with no pain.

Hi Dr Cliff , I have been watching your videos for a long time and enjoy the value and content you supply for us . I was wondering what loupe and magnifier are you using when removing the wax ? Also what metal specula are you using ? Thank you

Thanks a lot for this! So much appreciated! So this vid is about 3 years old. Would you still recommend Earwax MD today?

Very informative and interesting. Thank you.

ok nice but how do you proceed yourself without any one around

This is very informative thank you! I'm going to buy it!

Aye who ever ears clogged up use this it took me 3 days to get my hearing back it gone be a relief

Hi Doc what can you advice solution for the kids most especially for a 3 yrs old

what percentage is the peroxide safe to use at and do you dilute with water? Thanks

I think the good doctor meant ethylene glycol. That's what you find in antifreeze. Propylene glycol is an additive that is "generally recognized as safe" for use in food by the FDA. Typically found also in e-juice for vaping.

thank you so much ... I've been enlightened ... I've been bothered by clogged ears for years ... went to an audiologist ... she said yes to ear wax but offered no solutions ... except 3,000 hearing aids ... I got SO much more from your videos ... thank you!

I could not get this stuff In Canada where I live but I found something similar No peroxide! Did the same thing in ear for ten minutes it comes with syringe ball or bulb you suction it out then rinse with the same tool after you wash it out. It worked great I pulled an ugly black glob of wax out instant relief! Product is called Similisan ear wax removal kit. I live in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada I could not find the product featured in this video Where I live. Hope this helps anyone else out in my shoes. Thanks Doctor Cliff for this info and help with this painful issue I never have these problems with my ears ever! Glad I found this channel👍

You would have to ask a doctor if it was punctured, maybe an ENT. My older sister had a punctured eardrum and was not able to get her pilot’s license.

Is peroxide good or bad for ear cleaning?

In the picture with the plugged ear drum there is lots of little ear hairs showing, however after removal of the wax the ear hair is also gone. So does this cerumen also remove ear hair?

Did you still have to remove it with the tool?

Would you also grab the remaining rather macceration?

I wear hearing aids and I have to clean my ears out every week or two. I use an over the counter solution like Murine. I buy it at my Costco for $5.99 at the pharmacy counter and it works great! I let the solution sit in my ears for about 5 minutes and then squirt it out with the bulb thing. I usually do two rounds of this per ear and I'm able to see chunks of wax come out in the sink. If I don't do this on a regular basis my wax guards get clogged on my HAs.

Dr like to ask that is ears and eyes threatened the same way

How many drops do you put in each ear?

Will you be reviewing the new Olive Pro: 2-in-1 Hearing Aids & Bluetooth Earbuds?

See thats the thing, I'm curious to how I do this by myself without going to the doctor. After I use the product than what do I do?

What tool is he using to remove the wax after applying the product?

earwaxMD does not come with a suction device. the package suggests rinsing it out with water from a bulb. i have read online that distilled water is recommended. i was hoping to see it used as it would be at home.

Dear god I want a home kit. Don’t feel like overpaying for an ent appointment.

Hey Cliff w my history I'd hesitate to try this

Dude we need a demonstration of the products you review!

Great video... but. I have had issues with severe ear wax build up for a fair few years now. I have had to go to the Dr's to get them properly flushed out with a weird pulsating device that uses warm water and a syringe type thing. Last visit I was told I had a compaction that was too hard to remove as the higher setting was causing me pain. So ear drops were recommended to loosen the wax before another flushing visit. This has been my first time using any ear drops. The solution was Carbamide Peroxide based. I think it is fantastic! I could tell it was instantly doing *something* from the weird 'fizzing' sound I was hearing. I applied a decent amount, tilted my head for a while until I couldn't hear the dissolving sound, then tilted my head the other way. The solution came out along with a bunch of earwax. There was more fizzing sound going on, and more and more wax came out. Absolutely fantastic and I can hear well enough again.

But what are the results if you don’t have a doctor there to dig your earwax out? I thought most products were meant to dissolve it without someone digging it out of your ear.

lol I looked up this guys clinic up and its less then a half mile from me and next to the high school i went to pvhs.

As others have said, the question is: Can the be an effective home remedy because from what I'm seeing, it may or may not be. Would it soften the ear wax enough that over time it would fall out on it's own? Is medical care usually required regardless? Does this just simply help a doc get it out?

I provide custom hearing protection, mostly for those in shooting sports. I always inspect the ear canal. If I can't see the eardrum and the reflection of my lighted otoscope on the eardrum, I don't create the impression. Seeing the size and quantity of those plugs validates my practice. About 1-3 out of ten people I work with, I cannot see the ear drum and turn them away. Needless to say, it doesn't make for a happy client. But it makes me happy. Cause no harm and all of that! I have recommended Debrox and a visit to a professional. However, I will now recommend EarwaxMD in addition to a visit to a professional. Thank you for your extremely informative, logically presented videos. They truly help me provide a better service for my clients.

If it is caused by your jaw being out of whack you will usually have a clicking and/or popping type sound or even a “hitch” when you open and close your jaw! I would go in and find out because it can almost always be corrected (either by ear nose throat or a proper chiropractic adjustment) from what I’ve been told and is a massive relief when it finally stops!
