Ears are blocked

2021-05-15 21:07:57
Hi, my ears were showing signs of blockage due to wax and hence consulted am ent who suggested soliwax. I used the ear drops and now my ears are completely blocked and can hear only 50%. I don't have a cold, infection or any pain. This is highly irritating. Please help. Unable to physically visit a doctor as we are fearful of covid.

See only putting soliwax can't take the wax completely out of your ear .. soliwax  makes the hard impacted wax  soft when need to be removed physically out of ear ..
