If I am because I think, then, if I talk without thinking, I'm not really talking! Am I?

Yep, had that before... thank God it dissipates after a while. Mind you, the ones I get are usually funny, they block out bass sounds and leave only trebbles... very annoying when you can ear the neighbor turning is TV on... you get a huge

Chewing gum may remedy that (in the mouth, not the ears)..or yawning really big. It seems to have the same effect as going up or down in a plane or elevator really fast.

Saz, if you're ever tired of working with computers, you should consider a carreer in publicity. You'd be great for kids commercial... you know, the ones where they say that toy planes don't actually fly. http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif

It's caused by softened wax against the eardrum (usually softened by water). It should eventually pass, but you should be able to get some eardrops from a pharmacist to speed the process.

I get it quite frequently, very annoying. Just don't stick anything in your ear - this is tempting but can cause:
a) otitis (inflammation and infection of the outer ear - requires antibiotics)
b) packing the wax more tightly against your eardrum - uncomfortable
c) damage to the eardrum - very painful and potential permanent hearing damage
d) getting something else stuck in your ear - requiring an embarassing trip to your doctor
So resist the temptation to remove the wax physically.

LOL, Ryanamur! Well, that was said pretty much tongue-in-cheek...but one never knows, after all! Heaven forbid that we should have someone sue IW for medical bills related to bubble-gum extrication from the outer ear! http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...miles/wink.gif

Despite all your advice
I still say it's best to avoid water coming near any part of your body except through a straw which starts in a glas with the dreaded liquid and ends in your mouth

ahh man, i had one of those when i slept on my left ear for about 2 hours with a bunch of gel in my hair... it was a really funky feeling, and i was glad when i got into that elevator and it went away!

------------------
It's simple. Once the Planet is hurt, it gathers Spirit Energy to heal the injury. The amount of energy gathered depends on the size of the injury...What would happen if there was an injury that threatened the very life of the Planet? Think how much energy would be gathered! Ha, ha, ha. And at the center of that injury, wil be me. All that boundless energy will be mine. By merging with the energy of the Planet, I will be come a new life form, a new existence. Melding with the Planet, I will cease to exist as I am now. Only to be reborn as a 'God' to rule over every living soul.

<font color="white">When I got outta the shower one day, I felt the pressure of water trapped in my, ear, or so I thought...so I tried to shake it out. Then I tried to use a Q-tip to work it out. That made me go about deaf! I could not longer hear, and the pain was bad. I went to the store and bought this ear candle thing that you hold in your ear(made outta paper, in a funnel shape), and light the top end. the flame somehow produces something that slowley sucks the earwax outta your ear, but that was not enough. So I went to the doctor. He had this gadget that shot a jet stream of water (It hurt so bad, I cried at the pain...embarrassing, but true). That cured me.
The doctor told me to pour Hydrogen Peroxide in my ears once a month to soften the wax up real good , then rinse it out with real warm water. I have done so for a year now,,,and it makes me feel so much more clean!
(And when my wife wants to lick and bite on my ear at night...I don't have to worry about her tasting the nasty ear-wax flavor, because I washed it all out!)http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/tongue.gif</font>

Well, if we get sued, we'd just have to go and click on the banners a few thousand times to pay for the bill http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/smile.gif
