Getting your ears syringed

I'd love mine done again, not sure how you have it done though. The only time i've had it done was because i had an ear infection when i was about 17.

It's class like, I'm proper deaf at times picking up voices. Coming out the doctors having had it down though its unreal at what you can hear. Traffic is a bitch though as its loud as fuck.

just make an appointment at your GP, they will sort it for you.

When I worked in the club I used to have to get mine done every 3 month, its just normally the practice nurse who does it. Might be different down there though

Yeah pretty much, l had it done years ago when l stood next to the speakers all night at the last ever 'to die for' and couldnt hear from one ear, they will tell you to put tee tree oil init for a week beforehand to soften up the wax

i have to get mine done every 6 months because my ears are fucking tiny, and apparently i have a very small ear canal. they make me put this oil into either lug twice a day for the 5 days running up to the syringing. this miht be the case for you so if you need them done before a set date (holiday for example) give yourself plenty of time to book the appointments

you get the oil from Boots

They generally avoid doing it these days unless its the only option, as it can damage the ears. They'll prescribe you some ear drops that you put in before bed.

This is what my GP said anyway. Yours may be different.

Almond oil softens the wax

most gp surgeries will make you an appointment with a nurse to get it done if you just ring up, but they'll insist that you put oil in it for 5-7 days.

a little medical trick for you - tell tham that you've done this and just sit with olive oil (the stuff that you'd use for cooking, don't bother using earex/otex, it doesn't work) in the offending ear, plugged with cotton wool, for about 24 hours prior, and it should come straight out. nurses hate being proven wrong with this but it works a charm.

Haha your lugs are tiny like, we must look funny as fuck standing next to each other

Not sure how you get it done but it's fucking lush!!

Does it hurt getting it done???Im up for some of this, deaf as a post

I had it done about 10 years ago.

Went to the old WHQ one night, stood next to the speaker (which was rattling quite a bit) most of the night and remember being in agony later on sitting in Magic Flame. Didnt sleep one minute all night due to the pain in my ears. Made an emergency apointment with a GP that morning, and he syringed them there and then.

Tbh i hadnt noticed owt wrong with my hearing before that, but it did all seem super clear afterwards.

Hated having it done like. Felt horrible, though im sure it was only 15 seconds or so in each ear.

Takes about 10 minutes at the most with cleaning etc no pain involved, the doctor just shoots some water in and job done. The next time your out in town after having it done is quality, the music sounds much better.

I love it, warm spine tingling sensation, not too dissimilar to rushing like a fucker!

ive not had mine done before. I think im gunna give it a blast lol
