Incredible improvement in sound quality


Ok, I am an old fart with a stereo. But my system sounds so much better tonight. Why? I went to my doctor today, as I do every six months (one of my favorite people)… and he noticed that one ear had a lot of wax. So, he had his nurse use a warm water irrigation device to clear it. Wow.

I use some drops, and work to keep my ear canals clear. But, for some reason I was not able to clear my right ear.

So, wow. My system sounds so much better. Sometimes you just need a professional. Although technically you can buy these devices for a couple hundred on line. You need to realize you need to use it.

I was thinking about getting one of those ear cleaners I’ve seen advertised on TV, but then again, I could start shoving a QTip in one ear and out the other.😁

Tinnitus is not an ear problem! On another note, when I was much younger I worked in a dusty factory environment. (No silver spoons here) I went in for a physical and they found my ears were partially plugged so they did the warm water irrigation thing. OMG, I couldn’t believe how good that felt. Highly recommended.

Nothing like hearing in stereo again. I use my waterpik on lowest setting with the triple jet ear  fittings. Simple enough and kick the q-tips to the curb.

Then what is it?

I have tinnitus. I use the Rain app to help me sleep. And I get more wax build up in one ear.

Please do not buy any contraption to clean your ears - here is the best / safest way: using an eye dropper drop 10 drops of hydrogen peroxide in your ears, head turned sideways, hold for 1 minute - turn head, repeat for the other ear. Do this every day for a week (or see an ENT and have them clean it for you) and then go to 1 day a week.  

Auditory Cortex damage happens to be the case. As for others, I’d be foolish to speak on their behalf.
