[Everything doTERRA] Re: ear wax

The blow dryer was NOT close to his ears btw... it was like I was blow
drying his hair.. just aimed a little at his ears.. I didnt do this
for very long either. He didnt like it.
I figured I had better describe this well, lol! Be careful with the
ears. No sharp pointy things trying to pick it out, and be VERY wise
about using candles. If you do use them, follow the instructions. My
concern was hot wax dripping into my sons ear and burning him. I think
they work, to a point, and are relaxing from the warmth and the loving
touch of the person applying it.
I wonder if alot of the wax that I see when I open them up, isn't just
wax from the ear candle melting down.

Good luck and I hope your son feels better!
