Hello. I am 15 year old male. 3 days ago, my mother was cleaning my ear with tips and said that she saw big earwax. While she was cleaning them, I felt like something was pushed inside my ear and is blocking my hearing in the ear that my mother was cleaning. So after searching through the internet, I come to conclusion that it was a earwax blockage. So I searched for treatments on the internet, and found that warm water might help because we don?t have a hydrogen peroxide. So I tried to some warm water in my ear for just 10 seconds and let them out. But that did nothing. I also put warm water while I was showering, and waited for about 20 seconds this time, and I let the water out, and nothing changed. Roughly 5 hours ago, I tried dripping water in my ear. When the first one dropped, it felt like it blocked my ear more, it felt worse than before. I was scared that the drip might have had damaged my eardrum? I don?t feel any pain, no ringing as well. I feel like there?s a ball blocking inside my ear, I am assuming that it is just an earwax.
