OK, will have a look at an otoscope. I definitely have to clean my ears. They were full of wax and that plugged the aids real quick when I put them in yesterday. My own fault, I should have hosed my ears out first.
But my aids have been on hiatus since the pandemic broke. Being home-bound reduced the need for hearing aids. It is just me and my wife. Instead of wearing the aids I just say “pardon” more. She does the same to me.
But yesterday I went out and put the aids in without too much thought and they plugged within minutes.
I just use a syringe and warm water to clean my ears. Seems to work OK.
