At first the syringe was quite alarming because it pulsed and the water got a little hot and quite fierce. They did it twice. The second time was better because I knew what to expect. But, I have to say that as AME mentions that the tympanic membrane can be damaged I would be sceptical if there is a next time.
However, I will obtain Exterol and use it very sparingly.
True to say that I am a little depressed at the minute but I am sure it will pass.
