Ear wax lump from hell

I’ve had earache for a couple of weeks, well today I touched my ear and was like “what the hell is that”. A HUGE lump of wax was hanging halfway out of my ear.

Are you ready for this?? I still can’t believe it 🤣

Do you think there is any chance you have a matching one in your other ear?

Asking for a friend……

Better out than in!

Ps just wanted to say how lovely it is to see a Sporner post popping up on “trending”.

To all those MN posters who are new to Sporners Corner welcome to our little world of wonders.

Ok I am really confused how you never noticed it there until it got this big? Do you never touch your ears? Did it suddenly appear?? Whats the deal here?? Did noone tell you? Have you been walking around with it sticking out??
Please explain as ai just can't fathom how you didnt notice????

You definitely should stay well away from your ears. That’s what causes many of the problems with them.

That waxball is so massive you'll have the bounty lady knocking on your door wanting to do an overpriced newborn photoshoot 😂

@TheRealHousewife omg yes that will be it! That was the year I had my first ever abroad holiday without my parents and although I was careful not to burn I bet I missed my ears!

MrsPapillon · 16/06/2026 11:48

I think I’d be running to A&E if that bollock had fallen out of my ear!

whoahokeycokey · 16/06/2026 12:25

We need scale. Can you pop a 50p next to it 😁

BeMintFatball · 16/06/2026 12:33

Sorry not read whole thread. Got a question? Do you have a short hair style. One where the hair stylist has to clip short bits around your ears?

Because that could be the reason for all the hair. My elderly mum had a similar problem ear wax mixed with hairs. She needed hers syringed.

also 🤣🤣🤣 for the previous poster who made the absorbed twin comment .

Hope you feel better for
that being out OP

Fabulous nugget. The world must sound so loud now.

minipie · 16/06/2026 12:57

Yeah that’s clearly going to hatch.

MajorProcrastination · 16/06/2026 13:02

That's incredible! Thank you for sharing. So satisfying! Hope it feels better now.

Calling @CustardCreams8 , please tell me how I do it exactly as I would like to try.

Calling @CustardCreams8 , please tell me how I do it exactly as I would like to try.

Use olive oil to soften ear wax, then with the bulb squirt the water into the ear (go careful to begin with). If you’ve ever had your ears syringed you’ll know the sensation that feels ok. I use warm not hot water. I usually do it over a sink as water goes everywhere. Hope that helps! I’m sure there are YouTube videos to demonstrate. It mightn’t work straight away, but with daily oil you’ll get there. So satisfying when big lumps come out. I have narrow curly ear canals according to an ear doctor I saw, so struggle with muffled hearing from wax build up a lot, it’s something I have to keep on top of.

YogaLite · 16/06/2026 13:29

@CustardCreams8 thank you 😊

call Roswell. Autopsy urgently required.

Roswell is one enormous disappointment, try Area 51!

I know other posters have written of their jealousy, but I can promise you that I am the most jealous (of this nugget) person here. It's an absolute unit. Well done.

I look forward to the dissection photos. I also wonder whether it will have a heart of air pod /silicon/rubber ear plug.

goldylock · 16/06/2026 14:08

In my 20s I had a very itchy ear.

I used to stick a needle into my ear. And there was something hard it would touch.

Took me a good year of scraping it and then it popped out one day, and the mass was earwax but it had legs! Legs!!!!!!

The relief was great and immense.

PS: Older me thinks what a thicko to stick a needle in my ear/ear drum.

It Looks like a creature!

It looks like a toy duck!

How the hell did you get that monster out of your ear?

CanIinterestyouinasarcasticcomment · 16/06/2026 14:22

Is it weird that I want you to squish it?

PumpkinsAndCoconuts · 16/06/2026 14:36

I genuinely did not know that was possible! it`s fascinating! And nauseating... Hmm

PizzaBreath · 16/06/2026 14:41

As someone who suffers with ear issues, this is immense! Can I recommend ear syringing to people on this thread generally? They show you the camera view and also the out put, it’s incredibly satisfying when you feel them get a good lump!

Error404FucksNotFound · 16/06/2026 14:44

I am mightily impressed that your ear gave birth to that without gas & air!

NotThisShitAgain121 · 16/06/2026 14:49

Eww grim lol

NotThisShitAgain121 · 16/06/2026 14:52

It looks like a fresh turd.
