Comment on Q-tips
prettybunnys@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks agoI’ve only had to do it twice, the first time was after a particularly nasty sinus infection where I basically expelled an entire cast of my sinus cavity via sneeze ( 0/10 feeling, do not recommend ) and a second time when I was getting custom studio plugs made.
You can also get an ear cleaning done by an ent where they’ll use tools, that was … unpleasant but so fucking effective.

Yeah, an ENT will usually use a curette while looking into your ear. That’s like a little stick with a loop or scoop at the end. Basically, they’ll manually scrape it clean. It’s effective, but usually more unpleasant as you found out.
Thankfully, drops and irrigation work just fine for me.
