OK so I assumed that since we could ask just about anything in support, medical questions would be accepted. For the last 4 days, the sound in my right ear has been muffled and it feels like water is in it. I've been told by my family that it's compressed earwax and to pour hydrogen peroxide in my ear, I've been doing that for 3 days with no results and it even seems its getting worse. Any suggestions?

Step 1. Aquire cotton buds.
Step 2. Insert cotton buds into right ear.
Step 3. Get all that ear wax shit out of your ear.
Step 4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 until fixed.
Step 5. If symptoms persist seek a doctor.

Arrange an appointment at your local ear specialist?

Alright, this happened to me over the Summer. I went to one Doctor, and they said that I had an ear infection and put me on antibiotics for a week. Still happened, so I went to another Doctor, and it was just wax buildup from wearing headphones playing games, earbuds, music etc. They flush your ear out in like 3 minutes and your hearing comes back. I'd personally just go to the doctor now because it's a waste to do it yourself. Oh, and cotton swabs aren't for cleaning your ear out. They push all the wax back further and make your problem worse. Doctor.

Earbuds work if you don't have a lot of wax, but if you have enough where it's worth clearing out then yeah you'll end up pushing it around and that's not what you want
It's either a wax build up, ear infection or both, go to the doctors, they'll help

Thanks for the suggestion guys, I've scheduled an appointment at Patient First.
