Since there is an open wound inside her ear, please avoid using any over-the-counter ear drops or inserting cotton swabs immediately. If the eardrum is damaged, drops can cause severe pain or infection. Keep the ear completely dry by placing a cotton ball coated with petroleum jelly in the outer ear during showers. For pain, she can take acetaminophen or ibuprofen. You must consult a doctor or an ENT specialist. They need to examine the ear with an otoscope to safely diagnose the clog and prescribe the correct prescription-grade antibacterial drops or ointment.

If you have heavy earwax buildup with reduced hearing and the drops like Clearwax Ear Drops feel stuck, it usually means the wax has absorbed the drops, swelled, and is blocking the ear more, so do not use cotton buds or insert anything into the ear again as this can worsen injury; you can continue the drops for 2?3 days as directed and keep your head tilted to help the wax soften and come out naturally, but since you also suspect a minor injury and your hearing is affected, it is safest to visit an ENT doctor who can remove the wax gently using suction or instruments, and avoid self-cleaning until then.

A fungal ear infection (Otomycosis) lasting two months will not improve with wax drops like Clearwax, as they do not treat fungus and may worsen moisture. The ear usually needs proper cleaning by a doctor and antifungal ear drops such as Clotrimazole or similar. Keep the ear dry and avoid inserting anything inside. Please consult an ENT specialist for correct treatment, as persistent infection needs examination.

Clearwax ear drops can be helpful and safe if the blockage is caused by built-up earwax, as they work to soften it. However, because this blockage happened suddenly, it is very important to have a doctor examine your ear first. If the blockage is due to an infection, fluid, or a damaged eardrum, using these drops might not be safe. Please avoid inserting anything like cotton swabs into your ear. A quick check with a healthcare professional will ensure you get the right, safe treatment.

Yes, it is highly recommended to see a healthcare professional since Clearwax did not resolve the issue. Persistent pain could mean the wax is deeply impacted or there is a mild ear infection, which a doctor can safely diagnose and treat. To find the minimum cost for a visit, you can call local primary care clinics, urgent care centers, or community health clinics directly and ask for their 'self-pay minimum consultation fee' or check if they accept your health insurance. Many community clinics offer sliding-scale fees based on income. Please get this checked soon so you can get some relief.

If your right ear started hurting suddenly and you used Clearwax Ear Drops, the pain may be due to impacted wax, irritation, or even a small injury or infection, and sometimes these drops can cause discomfort if the ear canal is already sensitive or blocked, so avoid putting more drops or inserting anything into the ear. It is important to consult a doctor (ENT specialist) to check for infection or blockage and get proper treatment.
