How To Treat A Clogged Ear

Dislodge Trapped Fluid Gently

When individuals try to dislodge trapped fluid gently from their ear, they have a good chance of removing the clog and repairing their hearing. This is done in many different methods. One is to jiggle the affected earlobe while holding the ear facing down. The jiggling might be enough to dislodge any fluids without too much work. Patients can also lie on their side for ten to fifteen minutes at a time with their ear down on a towel. Gravity is the force at work here. Patients can also hold their ear downward while cupping their hand over it tightly. When individuals uncup their hand every few seconds, they’re vacuuming the fluid from their ears. Chewing gum is another gentle and effective way to help dislodge water or fluid stuck in their ear. It’s noninvasive, and it doesn’t hurt. All it takes is a chewing sensation to move the water along.
