Ear Candles

[saramsland]

Does anyone know where I can buy ear candles for home use? Closer to the Sathorn area would be good but I don't mind traveling to pick some up.

Excuse my ignorance but what are ear candles? Candles you put in your ears or candles made of ear wax????

I would be very careful before attempting any medical procedure without a proper medical professional's opinion. Things go wrong.

Medical procedure?

 

I know Wikipedia isn't the greatest source, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ear_candling is worth a read.

It is definitely not a medical procedure. It simply cleans out your ears.

There are lots of warnings about using these things. However, I have never had a problem with them. This goes into it quite a bit. It was already posted though.

Sorry, but it is a medical procedure, and things go wrong all the time when people try medical these things at home.

 

It is cheap and quick to get your ears cleaned out by a professional at a hospital or ENT clinic.

 

The wax is there for a reason, cleaning them out without supervision may lead to problems.

In the UK several houses a year burn down from ear candles and have even been linked to stomach ulcers. 

 

Please be careful if you use them and always after eating.
