Besides the obvious ear swaps, I've heard of putting a candle next to your ear and the wax will melt.

Try to look more into that and see if it's dangerous, if it is - don't do it.

Light a Q-tip on fire and stick that sucker in.

Go to an ear doctor and have him clean it, you'll be listening to stuff in 7.1 joint stereo vbr after it.

Q-Tips are what impacted this junk down my ear canal in the first place.

Water pick from the toothbrush isle. 50/50 hydrogen peroxide and water mix. That's what a doctor would use. If that doesn't work they use a small wire loop on a stick that hurts and is pretty freaky that someone else in in your ear. But if the pick doesn't work that's what you'll need to do.

Ear drops or something, maybe it's what #1470 alredy suggested. I got a them from a drug store. Just squirt some of that stuff in your ear and lay down for a couple of minutes and it'll dissolve the wax

I've had this problem... My ear canals are shaped very oddly, they go straight up and are extremely thin.

The first time, the doctor had a special tool for it. He cleaned it all out, which hurt a whole lot. BUt it worked.

After that, i pretty much went to using women's hair pins. or I take a paper clip, and straighten it out, then bend it in half.

good luck.

Once when I was a kid I stuck a junior mint in my dad's ear when he was asleep. Now my dad was just starting to slip into schizophrenia and was obsessing about a prior head injury he had convinced himself never healed and was a hypochondriac anyway. When he woke up the junior mint had of course melted, and he thought his brains were leaking through his ear. Weird thing is I don't even remember putting the mint in there, but I was the only other person in the house.
Not that that has anything to do with anything.

Ear candles don't do anything, bent wires will poke your brain out.

Best bet is to get a "bulb syringe" - pretty much just a rubber sphere with a tube coming out one end. Fill a bowl 50/50 with hydrogen peroxide and water. Fill the syringe from the bowl. Tilt your head sideways so the earwax will fall out, and squirt that into your ear. Do this 15-20 times. Just hard enough to be uncomfortable - it shouldn't hurt though.

Will be easier to remove if you soften it with eardrops first.

Don't puncture your eardrum with the stupidass methods some people use...
