Bad ear! Bad! Bad!

Pumpy Tudors · 01-25-2004, 08:42 PM

Last night, I went to see the monster truck show Monster Jam. I had a really good seat, which meant that I needed earplugs, so I got some earplugs and wore them during the show. Everything seemed great last night, but when I woke up this morning, my left ear was numb, inside and out. I can't hear normally through the left ear, and it feels like something is deep in the ear canal clogging it up. Over time, the left side of my head has started to get a little numb too. I hope this goes away soon, as I find it rather uncomfortable. I wonder if this was from the noise or the earplug. Urgh.

Did you remember to take the earplugs out?

Hey, ya never know

The ear plug might have pushed some ear wax into the canal. Try some Murine drops or goto the doctors tomorrow.

Uh oh, another thread for the ear wax experts.

JonInMiddleGA · 01-25-2004, 09:58 PM

Your mileage may vary, but I suspect it might be from the earplugs, since I've been to numerous Monster Jams, never used earplugs and never had any problem hearing afterwards.

This was my second, and I was miserable last year before I bought earplugs. It was just so loud. I think I must've just put them in incorrectly this year.

I bought some drops, but I'm not sure if they actually got into my ear, as I didn't get any effect from them. I'd get my fiancee to put them into my ear for me, but I'm afraid to put any more in right now, just in case the first application DID get through. I don't want to overdo it. Urrrgh.

JonInMiddleGA · 01-25-2004, 10:09 PM

Just out of curiosity, you did remember to take the earplugs out of the plastic package before inserting them into your ear, right?

I thought it was interesting because yes, it was a first post from somebody registered since a very long time and coming from France, plus the intriguing name with the [],...

I just had to ask !

i've read a lot of "public profiles" and i love the nicknames "Pumpy Tudors" and "Chubby"

[Alice] · 01-26-2004, 11:08 AM

if you live in New Orleans why are you for the Broncos and not for the Saints?

Of course little do we know that the French translation of Pumpy Tudors is roughly equivalent to "a closet full of new shoes" and that a Chubby is a "chocolate-covered yummy."

tucker342 · 01-26-2004, 11:21 AM

Darkiller,

I can see why you married her!

I know very few women who would be willing to put up with their husband talking about NFL Football every morning.

Ok, that second line just made me laugh for some reason. I think it has to do with a twisted visual of someone holding up flash cards of NFL teams with a city name on one side and helmet on the other.

SI

I don't know how you can sit through one of these events without ear plugs...

Sorry, I just got around to seeing this, over a week later. I became a Broncos fan because of John Elway. I was an Elway fan when he was in college at Stanford, and I just followed him. I've never liked the Saints much at all. They simply annoyed me.

Sun Tzu · 02-07-2004, 07:25 PM

I would recommend a trout in the rectum to clear up that problem.

The problem of being an Elway fan?

Sun Tzu · 02-07-2004, 10:01 PM

Fonzie comes here? How bout that...

Pumpy Tudors · 02-07-2004, 11:15 PM

Ohbytheway, the ear problem started on a Sunday and cleared up a few days later on the following Thursday. All better now!

Sun Tzu · 02-08-2004, 12:13 AM

Somebody had an ear problem? I don't remember hearing anything about this.
