The feeling of a clogged ear can be quite unpleasant. It can result in muffled sounds, difficulties in hearing, and can even lead to a sense of fullness in the ear. In some cases, it can even cause dizziness. While there are many methods to ears, some natural remedies can help alleviate the discomfort.

Steam inhalation

Steam inhalation is an effective method of unclogging your ears. Boil in a pot and then remove it from the heat. Position your face over the pot and drape a towel over your head, creating a tent-like structure that will help to capture the steam. This action will result in the opening up of your nasal passages and in effect giving easy access to remove the unwanted ear wax. Place a few drops of essential oils in the bowl for an extra kick. Peppermint, eucalyptus, and tea tree oils are great choices.

Warm compress

Applying a warm compress to the affected ear can also be effective in removing excess wax. Soak a clean cloth in warm water, squeeze out any excess water, and place the cloth over your ear. Let it sit for 5-10 minutes and remove. This action will help to melt the wax, allowing you to remove it more easily.

Hydrogen peroxide

Hydrogen peroxide is a popular natural remedy for clearing clogged ears. To use hydrogen peroxide for unclogging your ears, mix an equal amount of water and hydrogen peroxide together. Use a dropper to place a few drops into your ear, and then tilt your head to the affected side for a few minutes. Do this once a week or as recommended by your physician to avoid ear damage. Hydrogen peroxide can dry out the ear canal if not used correctly. It is very important to remember to mix this substance with water.

Saltwater solution

A saltwater solution is another effective natural remedy for unclogging ears. Mix one teaspoon of salt in a cup of warm water, stir until the salt is fully dissolved, and then use an ear dropper to place several drops into the affected ear. This solution will help in breaking down the ear wax and clears the air passage. Tilt your head to one side and allow the solution to sit for 5-10 minutes before tilting the head to the opposite side. The water will begin to drain out slowly.

Apple cider vinegar

Apple cider vinegar is a great remedy for unclogging ears. Mix equal amounts of apple cider vinegar and water. Use a dropper to place the solution into your ear three times a day. The acidity of vinegar helps to break down the wax, causing it to drip out of the ear easily.

In conclusion, clogged ears can be very uncomfortable, but they are not a reason to panic. The above natural remedies are very effective in managing this problem, but always seek medical advice from your physician or an audiologist before trying any of the above remedies. Never try to poke your ear canal as it may lead to injuries or ear canal inflammation. To prevent further clogging, avoid inserting sharp objects such as cotton swabs into your ear, and always remember to clean your ears regularly.
