The worst place to get one is inside your ear canal, because that's the place where it hurts, meaning you'll have a pain lingering in your ear for days.

[@XavMarz]

I’ve got that rn lol. I’m in so much painnnnn. It’s hurting my jaw

[@barrytaylorprofoundlydeafi2479]

Hi Emily your right about pimples & acne! Last year I had new molds fitted and my ears were sore & it hurt when the pink gunk went in! It took ages to heal! I had to leave both aids out as having one in affects my balance! I get tinnitus & vertigo! So being severe to profoundly deaf was a struggle! Like people with glasses my hearing aids are going to be a part of me for life,I used to hate the idea but since I got the blue molds my confidence has grown! 😊

[@DefiniteHearing]

Way to choose blue molds and grow your confidence!! Wahoo!

[@ChatiseE]

Thank you. I have a painful ear pimple because I use Bose Noise-cancellation headphones all day (bc of loud upstairs neighbors), I even sleep with them on sometimes. I'll go get some hydro peroxide though and a few other things :)

[@DefiniteHearing]

I'm sad to hear it hurts! Loud neighbors are one reason I like my hearing loss ;)

[@cherry-of5uj]

i legit have one rn and its aching too much but sometimes it doesnt. Last night, i cant sleep properly because its aching a lot. :((

[@EmojiFan]

I use wireless earbuds pretty much everyday, I listen to music any chance I get mainly cause I can get very emotional and I get anxiety a lot and just listening to music helps, and I started wearing them frequently like a month ago and ever since then I have 2 pimple in my left ear and 1 in my right, I’ll start cleaning my ear buds and ears, I’ll try to update when they go away, thank you! :)

[@DefiniteHearing]

Sounds good!

[@marthadyke2472]

My ear molds collect ear wax....especially the R one my solution is getting a cochlear implant for that ear...ok that’s not a solution for everyone. Great crocheting!! Yes, it does take time but if you were timing how long each square took the time was getting less for each one unless you are watching TV at the same time. I hate tiring in the ends. Thanks for sharing since I won’t go onto Instagram it’s a black hole that probably won’t let me out. I hope that your ear feels better

[@DefiniteHearing]

Your implant date is coming up! Wahoo!! Yes, if tying in the ends is my least favorite part! Don't worry about Instagram. Way to do what works for you!

[@DefiniteHearing]

Follow your gut!

[@swanlzia]

oh my gosh, my left ear hurts SO MUCH. It’s inside my ear at the bottom of it and anytime I lay on my side, my ear folds and it’s hurts bad, now I can’t sleep. I use q-tips daily because I hate having ear wax, so I guess that’s why it’s there. I was going to tell my mom but she just screamed at me so I don’t know what to do know. I’m having bad headaches and my jaw hurts?? I heard from others that this happens to them aswell when they have an ear pimple.

[@DefiniteHearing]

I’m so sad you’re hurting!! I definitely recommend seeing a doctor.

[@erikaharlos9218]

i got one in my left ear, two weeks ago… and continued using my airpods, thinking that wasn’t the problem:/ now it hurts really bad

[@DefiniteHearing]

Oh no! I recommend disinfecting and cleaning those Airpods if you haven't and leaving them out until your ear heals. Those hurt!

[@SkippiVarndenkof]

Your presenting is so pleasant! Thanks for the advice! I put in some music buds a few days ago and got a spot in one ear and I can't even sleep on it 😵‍💫

[@DefiniteHearing]

How much hydrogen peroxide do we use?

[@DefiniteHearing]

[@StarOnTheWater]

I get these in my ear every now and again and it hurts sooo much. Can't sleep. I cut a small piece of garlic and put it in my ear over night, it's smelly and uncomfortable but usually I'm fine the next day.

[@allibug8417]

Garlic???

[@DefiniteHearing]

Interesting. Garlic has antibiotic properties so that could work. However, I don't recommend placing foreign objects in the ear.

[@StarOnTheWater]

@@DefiniteHearing More like fixing it in front of the ear with a piece of tape, but yes, you should be careful.

[@theawesomecatmom8315]

I would rather use garlic oil or pressed garlic and gently dab a qtip in the oil and apply it to the acne topically. Putting foreign objects in the ear is dangerous especially when sleeping. Another thing you could try is steaming some garlic oil and water and allowing the steam to hit your ear for a few minutes?

[@EnvyTheRealest]

I started getting these since I started using my Buds Pro over a year ago. I got rid of it a couple of months ago. The pain is ridiculous. And the itching doesn't makes it any better even when its healing. The scaring never goes away and it itches and not to long after, the pimple would come back repeating the cycle

[@DefiniteHearing]

Yikes. It sounds like getting rid of the buds is a good idea.

[@javezscbl]

I've been dealing this for years and it's so annoying. maybe I should change my pillow or prevent touching it. idk...

[@DefiniteHearing]

Yes, wash your pillow case often. Clean ear buds often too. I'm sorry, they hurt so much!

[@DefiniteHearing]

[@slayridah]

Im absolutely forced to completely clean out my ears once a day with cotton swabs because if not, my ear always gets clogged with earwax after a month or so and extremely itchy if i don't clean them out daily. Also i have to wear brand new earplugs when i play with my band 3 to 4 times a week, so alot of objects have to go in my ear for health reasons and although they are always clean, i still get itchy, annoying ear pimples once a week. I don't know what else i can do. 😢

[@DefiniteHearing]

A wise man once told me usually the patient can figure it out faster than a doctor. The routine treatment might be annoying but the prevention is worth it!

[@AndreaAdams-c6s]

Cleaning daily might reduce your natural earwax protection..perhaps clean them with peroxide, quite pleasant to use, to get rid of excess ear wax etc, and try snd keep ear dry as well any moisture trapped could cause sn infection, etc.

[@Sanchlingernon]
