One of my ears got blocked with wax
Because I was an idiot and kept jamming cotton buds in my ear to clean it.

The nurse took out some kind of wondery water machine that pumped and sooked water in and out of my ear canal, and like you I had to hold a kind of metal tray under my ear to catch all the gunk.

We'll after the water drained away you'd be SURPRISED at how much ear wax can build up in there. There were loads of lumps, some tiny, but 10-20 ranging in size between a pea and an unshelled peanut. Amazing!

Then when I went out on the street, yes I did feel amazing but just the sound of a bus going past made me crumple into a ball of cowering agony. May have been funny for those on the bus.

Superb
I also got it done with the machine another time, but found it to be incredibly painful and told the nazi nurse to stop. She was kinda shocked at this and actually went to continue with her grim task and would have done had I not stood up and made for the door. The big silver syringe thing was much more pleasant.
