"I have had a blocked ear for a few days. No pain, just a wax build-up in my opinion. What can I do?"

If you have had a blocked ear for a few days with no pain but suspect it may be a buildup of earwax, you can try using EAROL with olive oil, available at pharmacies. Apply it twice a day. Avoid using cotton swabs as they can push the earwax further in. If you do not see improvement after 3 to 5 days, experience continued blockage, or notice a decrease in hearing, consider seeking advice from a healthcare professional such as a nurse or doctor.
