Are these drops beginning with 'C' cotton buds by any chance. If so, you're supposed to take them out after use. No wonder your ears blocked up!

Ghosthunter Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 Cotton buds just compact the wax in the ear canal making it worse. Syringed would be the best thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does need syringing the doctor will ask you to put drops of olive oil in for a few days before,then refer you to the nurse to have it done, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
