I'd feel sorry for the poor nurse who has to do that to people, but I think it might be in order for me.



Eurgh. Spiders.


As long as it doesn't look like this one that turned up in my house over winter

A 1996 study concluded that ear candling does not produce negative pressure and fails to remove ear wax
I doubt that a candle flame produces enough pressure to lift wax, especially as it's probably stuck pretty well to the inside of your lug'ole.

How's about go see the doctor?

Either that or come up ere and let my ma take a look.

According to medical researchers, it is both dangerous and ineffective
that's as far as I got lol

And Chris, I don't like to bother the docs more than I can help it. Just thought I'd test the great .org of knowledge first that's all!
