I think I know what the culprit is and it's the wax I was trying to get out in the first place. It's turned into like a muck and gummed my ear right up. It seems to be worse at night when I sleep but during the day when my head is elevated it feels better. I'm going to make a doc appt to see about getting my ears flushed out with the syringe they have. Worked for me in the past.
Was looking at this kit last night, reminds me of the syringe the doctor uses to clean your ears out.
It’s probably just hydrogen peroxide you put in to soften the wax before squeezing it out with water. But ye the squeezy bottle / syringe is the trick.
It's worked twice for me so far. I highly recommend it.
