I have a blocked ear ……
My left ear is completely blocked and although I can still hear out of it. It’s the weirdest sensation ever. I’ve tried all the ‘tricks’ and nothing seems to be working. These tricks I refer to are the baby oil trick and the hot water one. Maybe my ear isn’t blocked and it’s just fucked from the abuse I have given it over the past 8 years from being in small loud spaces. I don’t think this is the case though because I can sort of hear fluid moving about. I just wish there was something I could do to just unblock it. I was thinking what if I got a really long cotton bud. That would be awesome. I think I’m going to have to go to the doctor and get them syringed. I’m not too excited about this though.
My right ear has been enjoying the sounds of Billy Bragg this morning.

This happened to me a while ago. I held my earlobe and then moved my ear up and down in a kind of circular motion and that cleared it up enough so I could hear properly! It’s the worst thing ever though.

I had the same problem a few months back.
I got some stuff from the chemist cleared it right up, the problem comes back here and there.
It’s probably just wax in the back of your ear that’s hardened.
Best bet would be to see a doctor and get it syringed or some shit.
You’ll be fresh as a daisy.

Tried drops?
Apparently getting them syringed feels awesome though.
