[-N-]

Could you repeat that please?

Does any1 here get ear problems more than others. for example. Ive had to get tubes in my ears every couple of years because i would get a really bad infection or something like that.

Depends on what. When I was young, I had a problem with my ears that they got excrutiating ear-aches often, especially if I got water into my ears, because the insides of my ear were too small. I had to get an operation where these tiny plastic tubes were put into my ears for a few years to enlarge the insides. They got taken out when I was 8 and though I still am prone to ear-aches more than most people, especially in the water and in the cold, it's not nearly as bad.

Soon after being born, I suffered a perforated ear drum. Doctors told my parents for many years to come that I would and should be deaf, which turned out to be nonsense. I had to keep going back for checks, and at one point I had my ears syringed.

Last month I lost 90% of my hearing in my right ear, for some unknown reason, but ear drops cleared that problem up.

And that's the medical history of my ears. I hope you all enjoyed it! Look out for the sequel: The medical history of my nose.

Well...When i was about 5 my ear canal was to small so i had to have like a surgery-They had to dig stuff out! owchie!! never had tubes in my ear,though

I often get ear-aches after swimming in pools, which is really annoying... and it's always in the same ear. Actually I have it right now, but thankfully it's getting much better.

Also...if i get into a pool and i stay underwater too long...My ears are clogged with water and it hurts and stays there for about 5 days!

I have had tubes put in when I was way younger and last year I had to have my ear drum reparied.

[Cloudstrife4003]

Well...i only have about 78% of my hearing in my right ear-they say they can't find why..but i can hear fine..

I used to get killer earaches when I was little, and my parents thought about putting tubes in them, but they didn't. And i don't many earaches any more.

But my ears clearly aren't good at draining, and they have a terrible sort of symbiosis with the rest of my sinuses.

When I was little, I also had gobs of earwax in my ears. I went to the doctor once, and they vibrated it out with warm water, until there was a huge piece in a little tupperware bowl

Small men have taken to living in there. I should get it checked out, but whenever I try to make an appointment, the men scream in my ear so I cannot hear the person on the other end of the phone.

When I was about 8 I had a really bad cold and I refused to blow my nose because I didnt like doing it.

My tubes, nasal passages and whatnot became filled with so much snot and gunk that my inner ear burst because of the pressure of all this stuff backlogging in my tubes. It hurt like blazes. I remember we were trying to watch a film as a family and I kept screaming in pain because it felt like someone was stabbing me in the head.
I think my inner ear burst in my sleep because when I woke up my ear was stuck to my pillow with yellow gunk and my pillow was covered in it. I had immense fun picking all the gunk off my ear, and it was good because my ear no longer hurt.

It taught me to always blow your nose when you have a cold.

Yum!
