7. Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide can be used to soften and loosen earwax that's causing clogged ears. Mix three percent hydrogen peroxide with warm water, and then using a dropper, place a couple of drops into the affected ear. Keeping the head at an angle, allows the hydrogen peroxide to do its job.
There may be some fizzing as the wax dissolves. When this stops, gently wipe the ear clean with a cloth. Treat the ears twice a day for two days.
