A while back there was a post about having an itchy ear.
Well I've been vigorously cleaning my ear after a shower in case it was ear wax build-up.
After doing that Sunday I've been getting blood on the tissue paper. GP said I've perforated my ear drum and I've been prescribed antibiotics.
Bugger.
If your ear itches - get steroid ear drops. I've now got to shower with cotton wool & vaseline in my ear to keep it dry.
Dry and itchy, until it heals.
I'm 40. I'm too old to be this stupid. :(
Ear candles bro
Literal pseudoscientific garbage.

But I saw it in Shrek!?!?!
Light one not in your ear and realize how dumb they are.
Na mouth candles are better, with appropriate filling of course.
Ear candles do nothing. Other than line the pockets of quacks.
They are also dangerous.
