Obsession??

is it wierd to be obsessed with cleaning out your ears? it feels really good but im worried that i might get an infection....

david s	Have you tried using Hydrogen Peroxide in your ears? Its awesome! It bubbles up and makes it easier to get all the stuff out.
bombhaus	Yes, if you clean them out too much you will get an infection. A friend of mine named Russell was obsessed and I'd always see him cleaning his ears with cue tips and stuff. After a few months he started to have problems with a lot of ear infections and stuff. I wouldn't suggest cleaning your inner ear canal more than once every week. Your outer ear you can wash off as much as you want.
Mau	you shouldn't introduce things on your inner ear, my doctor say that you should only clean them with your elbows. just wash them outside while bathing, and you ll be fine.
pink_luver	U'll never get dirty ears(LOL)
delawaregirl83	It's not obsession to want to be clean at all times. Your just worried that you'll get an infection, just don't clean it to the point that you cause yourself to get an infection.
Childfree Wolf	No, it is not good! You should only clean the outside. Never put anything in the ear-canal! http://www.healthyhearing.com/library/article_content.asp?article_id=240
cindy e	OMG!!!! i love cleaning out my ears! rock on baby! keep it up...dont stop till your ears bleed!!
Cynthia G	actually I thought I was the only one that had an obsession with cleaning my ears. i have been cleaning my ears with a q tip for like 15 yrs at least I have never had any problems just don't push the q tip to far.
Stephy	No it isn't weird to clean out your ears. You will not get an infection from cleaning out your ears.
ivy23kris	I totally agree. It's like an orgasm, well maybe not that good, but it does feel real good. They say to only do it once or twice a week so that you won't take out too much wax or bacteria. happy cleaning!!
[♥that girl♥]	well, just make sure you use q-tips or cotton swabs or whatever you call them. and clean you ears often with ear cleaning stuff
Paige	It is sorta weird, and also not good. The wax is in your ears for protection. Sticking "forgein objects" in your ear is risky!!! You could get carried away one day by accident and puncture your ear drum. If this is an obession that you can't control,, then I suggest in finding something else to do like washing your hands or something when you get the urge to clean your ears. Also, only allow yourself so many q-tips a day/week. I clean my ear after my bath every night or so...but I would think that is normal..and I don't actual clean the inside as much as getting the soap/water from the outer area... I would be very careful,, and change this habit.
stargazer 100	YOU go girl. MAKE sure the q-tips are clean. Nothing wrong with being clean.
tsoddy2013	no infection but very wierd
kajunattitude	my fiance is obsessed with his ears being clean, just be careful. People don't realize it but when using q-tips your actually pushing "more" of the wax in, then you're getting out. Eventually, it can get plugged up and have to be vaccumed(?) out.
looking_4_answers	i do the same thing and i've heard that cleaning your ears too much could be bad but i've never had any problems..... that i know of!
samarth	its fine, to clean ur ears......but don't do dat wid a hard , pointed object, u might get hurt...please, answer my questions too.... ...
pcmonkey1976	do a search on google for O.C.D. that should anwer your Q
Shayla <3	NEVER HEARD THAT ONE B4!!
?	I agree that it could almost be orgasmic. Try wetting that q-tip. This will make your toes curl...but be extremely careful.
eju006	Yes, you could get an infection. You should clean your ears twice a week, recommended by Doctors. You could also have an obsession, first you start with cleaning your ears, next thing you know you are doing drugs. So stop it while you can.
socalgrrrl05	Just dont go too deep! That sounded dirty I know, but you could damage your inner ear!
Foosball Champion	cleaning out your ears wont get u an infection
Amby	Well from what I hear, if you clean your ears with cuetips you just push wax back into your ears. So, I assume it can be a problem if you're not careful.
←♥kIssÈs♥→	Speaking of experience. When i was a lot younger I was obsessed with cleanning my ears, but I tend to poke my ear drums and I would clean my ears with anything...guess what, I was constantly in ear ache.
Shay~Shay	Sound's like you're not obsessed you just like the fact that it's feel's good. Too loosen the wax to drain: baby oil, olive oil & peroxide are good item's to clean your ear's. Q-tips are doing nothing, but pushing the wax further.
joanelmore	it is weird
jamn5684	Not weird, but when I was a kid the Dr said I was being too rough and the inside of my ears was red. Just be careful...
Blond Logic	Be very careful with what you stick in your ears. Yes, ears are very sensitive. Nothing larger that your little finger! Make sure what you are using is definitely clean! No - it's not weird. With some people it's feet, some hands, etc.
sig655	What? Can't hear you!
^v^ aka Obama Biden Laden 08!	OMG - It is better then sex! I swear! I have to do it every day and sometime twice. It can't hurt you if you don't damage your eardrum by sticking the Q-Tip in too deep. OMG - Just talking about it makes me want to go do it!!
