I did.

In my case, the insect was walking on my ear drums, i couldn't even walk straight. The feeling was irritating. I searched google and found either water or olive. Olive oil will kill it to stop the irritation. Insects don't drown on water. They float, so floading the ear and tilting the ear way up will help the insect float up to surface and out. If it doesn't work, tilting back the head will expel the water and the insect will be dragged out by the water.
look!! Google didn't go to medical school, nor can it remove a foreign body. So let him just find himself in a hospital so that they can remove the foreign body.

Use hydroquinone that they use for cleaning wound and ear , just apply some drop and then wipe it off with cotton bud. You will be fine

Warm a little oil( olive oil preferably) put it in a table spoon and allow a drop inside the affected ear. It will bring it out with ease.

Do EXACTLY this. The oil will make the wi gs stick and drown the i sect so it doesnt go wiggling about inside your ear. Then go see your Dr to help extract it.

I am not against going to a hospital.

Water did remove the insect in my ear.

You should remember that ENT doctors are not every where.

My wife got injured in the ear by a medical staff in a government hospital when she had a cotton bud stuck in her ear. The nearest ENT doctor was 300kms away. You can imagine the costs to further treat the injury that resulted to puss in a proper hospital.

A friend of mine broke his leg in an odd place that a medical Dr didn't see the fracture even with several xrays. That Dr even insulted him and referred him out of the hospital for refusing to walk. He broke had a femoral neck fracture.

I have nothing against going to the hospital but you need to understand certain situations that could pose a challenge for people to go to hospitals.

The friend couldn't afford the bills he was given by an orthopedic surgeon, he had to resort to painful unorthodox traditional methods that left him limping.

When I had an insect in my ear at 4am, with 2hrs to the nearest good hospital, a hospital didn't wasnt even an option. After all, I have experienced having water in my ear like a million times, so pouring water in is a relief that I could never doubt.

It will die there. The sticky waxy oil produced by the ear won't allow it pass, so you are safe.

Use cotton bud to wax your ear and bring the dead fly out


Next time don't go close to a bulb
grin grin grin grin
Don't follow this advice please..
Use the olive as explained above..
Avoid anything that might further push the bug.
Still find time to see a Doctor.

If it has not died in your ear, go to a very dark place, let someone help you on and point a touch light to your ear, it will walk out by going towards the light.

Do you think the funky fly entered the ear with reverse? It happened to me once and my Dad told me to hold my teeth together tightly (side of the affected ear) which I did, within 3seconds the idiot fly came out.

Re: Fly Entered My Ear Last Night by mrkings84(m): 4:43am On Jun 26, 2021
Uncle if the fly is still there I will advise you to go see a doctor biko, cos if you want to depend on solutions proferred here it's going to be detrimental as some will suggest u apply olive oil, others may say u use fuel or salt or peppers. Don't be surprised another may say u light a little fire into the ear......

Bro go see a doctor, even if na a native doctor....

Put a few drops of olive oil in your ear and stand still. In no time, it would flow to the surface and you can pull it out. Sorry bro!
Re: Fly Entered My Ear Last Night by Bullionguy(m): 5:40am On Jun 26, 2021

When I was 7, I put a bean in my left ear. I was playing with it. Take it out, Put it back. I couldn’t remove the last one. All I can remember from that night was the colour of the theater and my mother standing outside the door before the “operation”

Lol, same scenario with me but it was a foam. I can recall my mum stand behind me in the theater coz she told them she will be inside with the surgeon.

because you have bad experiences (which i empathize with) doesn't mean you should then give someone unqualified advice that will worsen his condition. That it worked for you doesn't make it the correct thing to do. Advice like yours has brought more people to the hospital hoping for a miracle when they're almost at death's door.it happens all the time
