what to do for plugged ears
For clogged ears due to a buildup of wax inside the ears, you can use olive oil. Olive oil will help soften ear wax so you can easily remove it. Gently warm some pure olive oil. Use a dropper to put a few drops of the lukewarm olive oil in the affected ear. Allow it to settle for 10 minutes so that the earwax becomes soft. Keep your head sideways and remove the oil and ear wax with ear buds. Do this very gently so you donât hurt the delicate organ.
