Clogged ear natural cures

how do i unclog my ear?
(15 Jan 2008)

Try to unclog your ears using these simple home remedies –
  • Chew a sugar free gum. The act of mastication will promote saliva production and in turn promote the act of swallowing. Swallowing the saliva will help to unplug the ears.


  • Yawn often. The act of yawning is also of a great help to unplug the clogged ears.
  • Close your nose with your thumb and the pointing finger and also your mouth. Now try to blow air from your nose and mouth (when they are sill closed). This will help to unclog the ears.
  • Take a hot water shower. This will create enough humidity and help to unclog your ears.
  • While going out in windy weather protect your ears with a cotton plug or a scarf.
  • If there is excess amount of wax in the ears then try to clean that first to unclog the ears. Consult a specialist in case of an ear infection or excessive ear wax.
