Thanks for the info. Sounds like it might be like one of those old wives tales, but a lot of those have a basis in science also. I have a lot of earwax buildup, and had been using expensive over the counter ear remedies. And I found out the main ingredient was hydrogen peroxide! So now I do what you do.
I think my Doctor’s point was that the H202 would just soften stuff up, so that when I go to have the lavage/suction procedure done, it will be easier.
But in the process of researching this, I found other uses for hydrogen peroxide. (Some breathing-impaired persons have found it useful to help their breathing. Do a search.)
