Ear problem: My ears have been plugged for a year... - Ataxia UK
Ear problem
It's all because of ear wax
Just clean it once in 60 days by an ENT specialist
Wondering if massage, gently around the ears using fingertips might help? I can only relate this to my experience, which may not be yours at all. My ears felt puffed inside (and were painful all round) until I gave up all gluten, now they are fine. If you get no joy from your GP, consider a cranial osteopath, who, again, in my experience, can work miracles. (Currently seeing one to see if she can help me with some aspects of my possibly ataxia related problems- we try all sorts, don't we?)
I would be interested to hear your experience with cranial osteopathy.
Will do, I think she may have helped with headache, she knew I'd had a bump to the head 5 years ago. I'll report back if it helps me with what I think is the Ataxia. I used to visit another one, who is too far away now, when I thought I just had BPPV and would weave in and then walk out in a straight line. I could drive in those days. He also 'fixed' my intense dislike/pain when seeing bright lights or headlights after 1 visit, another cranial osteo did the same for my daughter so pretty astonishing stuff can be done, but not miracles! ( I am also a tooth grinder, which messes up tensions the head!)
My ears often play me up but I use drops from Boots. They are great because I cause them myself but they have peroxide in so they fuzz in your head. When I need them, I use too often and far too much - not very scientific lol and I am impatient!!
They are in a blue box and called ‘Boots Dual Action Ear Wax Remover’ x
