I put some ear drops in my ear this morning and then put cotton in my ear to keep it from running out. Then after about 2 hours I tryed flushing it out with water. I'm not sure that it did anything as I haven't put it to any test.
But I doubt that it would be that easy.

The ear drops expired July, 2009 but I kept it in the refrigerator.

A friend of mine got her ear wax removed by her doctor but it cost $150.00
My HMO doctor would probably do it at no cost to me but I'd rather do it myself if I can.
Take your friend"s advice. The doctor has a special machine to do the procedure. I had mine cleaned just before coming to Fl. It's worth every Penney.
