saramsland Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 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.

Rumbleg Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Excuse my ignorance but what are ear candles? Candles you put in your ears or candles made of ear wax???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast1 Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 I would be very careful before attempting any medical procedure without a proper medical professional's opinion. Things go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is definitely not a medical procedure. It simply cleans out your ears.Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 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. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ear_candling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toast1 Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) 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.

upside Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
