On the day of the helmet concert, I got shower water in my right ear. Then at the concert, my right ear was right next to a speaker. I had like airplane ear for a few weeks, and was taking q-tips to it ever-y-day. No pop. Went to the doctor and he said there was a bunch of wax in that ear unrelated to showers or helmet. I'm skeptical of that given it was just that ear, but anyway the assistant pumped a bunch of something thru and behind the wax and pushed it out. Not the orgasm-like pop I expected, but felt pretty good. I'all order that as a dessert every time I go to the doctor now.
