First time it was done in a health food store and later times I did it myself, didn't want my husband to know I was doing it, he gets a little upset (like alot) with all the things I do trying to help myself. Wait till he isn't at home and here I am with a paper plate with a hole punched in it for my ear to stick through so I wouldn't catch my hair on fire and this long flame and me cutting off the burnt end and trying to hit the pan of water with the flame that is some time cut off with the burnt piece. It wasn't a pretty picture plus it is dangerous. Don't recommend it. Have major ear problems, won't go into them except that I see my ENT about once a month and stay on antibiotics most of the time and have long acting tubes in now because short acting ones just popped out after about a month. The candling didn't help me but everyone is different. Have major hearing problems and was hoping it might help that but it didn't plus it didn't help the fluid build up in my ears. About the chunk of wax, my instructions are probably the same. It says after candling to use an ear syringe and fill it with warm water and apple cider vinegar and to rinse soon after candling while the residue is soft. This is probably no help after it is hardened. Dunno. Mary -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
