Does anybody know what the Spanish equivalent to Waxsol eardrops is?
Or recommend anything better for a bunged up ear?
Thx

Re: ear drops
My ear specialist always recommends a few drops of olive oil
Re: ear drops
Yes, olive oil is as good as anything. If not, ask in the farmacia, "unas gotas para ablandar la cera de los oídos"

Re: ear drops
Otocerum is what you need.
It an antiseptic oil which dissolves earwax. Available over the counter.

Hope it works as I really don't want my ears blasted with a syringe again. Never felt so much pain I thought my brains were going to come out of the opposite ear...
Thanks

Re: ear drops
don't know if it's available in Spain, but if you get the chance, try Hopi Ear candling ! It should be done by a trained (& insured ) practitioner, and it's very effective. It's also very soothing & relaxing - hubby loves it (I used to do this myself in UK)
