Hi everyone. Let me start by saying this, my hearing is ok, no problem at all, no pain or discomfort in my ear too. But several days ago while cleaning my ear using soft cotton buds i felt like something in my right ear. So i took some pictures using my visual ear spoon, although i never use that to clean my ear just use it as a camera for inner ear image. I found something that resemble ear wax bundled with small hair. I tried to remove that using cotton but but to no avail. next a hissing type sound started on my ear which is synchronised with my pulse. Next day i bought waxsol and applied it inside my ear and after that i took pictured again and this time it looked like eardrum membrane swollen kinds of infection like. I'm at a loss here. As I don't feel any problem i'm trying to ignore it but every now and then my mind telling me to see a ENT specialist. Please advise.image before cleaning.
