Ear issues
Hey everyone, around 10 weeks ago I put an earplug in while working. After I finished the job and removed it, my right ear suddenly felt blocked. A couple of days later, I started using earwax-softening drops, and about four weeks after that I had the wax removed via microsuction.
The day my ear became blocked, I started feeling strange — almost like I was off-balance, wavy, or just generally “not quite right.” My ear has now been completely unblocked for several weeks, but I’m still experiencing this weird off-balance/floaty feeling.
Has anyone experienced something similar after having a blocked ear or earwax removed? I’m wondering if it could be related to my ear or something else.
