Super Cheap Upgrade

People often don't use the Bulb Douche properly...you need to let the drops do their thing for 10 to 15 minutes, then keep blasting warm water in your ear until things start to shake up and wax starts to bail out of your head. I need this maybe once a year, so there's no fear of wax deprivation. If water comes out of the other ear while doing this, your head may be empty...a bad sign. Also, you can save the wax and use it for turntable spindle lubricant.

Now that you mention it, I thought I did detect a little something on the other side. Uh-oh.

Thanks, I just ate lunch

How true, ear cleaning does wonders. Thank goodness Medicare pays for two cleanings a year. Most commercial insurance also pays, but final cost depends on your deductibles. For those thinking of the DIY route, please just say no. You risk the loss of your hearing, and without that all listening comes to an end.

The "DIY" (douche bulb and goo) route was originally suggested by my doctor over 30 years ago, and reaffirmed recently by my current physician. Although this method might not work for everybody, to suggest that the proper use of this method risks hearing loss is a silly and unsupported claim.
