This thread is definitely going in the Giant Bomb history books.
Stupid argument with my GP
Although I don't agree with some people here that you should bend over backwards and follow every order by the doctor (because, like in all sciences, there are different routes, ideologies, and opinions, it is your body after all and you've the right to refuse treatment), however, I think there's a significant corrolation between jamming a match in your ear, causing bleeding, and your resason for visiting your GP. You should get your ear checked out...otherwise how will they treat it? After they check it, then choose what to do from there.
Can you please just explain to me WHY you stuck a match in your ear?You can call me stupid, idiot, etc all you want. You're not gonna make me feel bad or go check a doctor. It's the internet after all, this is why I say this stuff here and not in real life.
If anyting you got me more views on my profile, so thx for that.

I didn't stuck it and started jamming it inside. I wanted to clean it but I didn't have anything else, and It started itching and scratching myself with it was apparently a not a good idea. I never said it was smart of me to do that.
I would learn sign language for the sole purpose of gloating to the OP.@MariachiMacabre said:
@Alexandru"Hey Doc, my hearing in my left ear is terrible. Could have something to due with my choice to stick a match in there until my ear drum bled? Be careful, if you say yes I'm gonna get delusional and think I know more about health than you." That's basically a summary of the stupid shit you did. Until you're a doctor, that guy is smarter than you on the subject and this thread made it seem like you're intensely ignorant and arrogant. Have fun going deaf, I guess. I'll certainly have fun saying "I told you so." As will the rest of us.You can call me stupid, idiot, etc all you want. You're not gonna make me feel bad or go check a doctor. It's the internet after all, this is why I say this stuff here and not in real life.

But if he can't hear you say it, where's the joy in it?
THIS DOCTOR MAN STUDIED MEDICINE FOR 8 YEARS HOW DARE HE TELL ME WHAT'S GOOD FOR MY HEALTH
Get your fucking ear checked.

Ok, so we've covered that. But do you deny that the damage you did to your ear could have future repercussions? Do you not think it's worth dealing with something that could lead to serious hearing loss?

i still have not gotten answers
in those two years did you get your ears inspected in any sort of way?
also , i still think its understandable and a nice endearing thought to think that others remember small details regarding your health even if its slightly annoying.
One last question. How is it that some of you get pissed off about something that doesn't affect you? I get the people that say I'm an idiot or make a joke or whatever, but there are some of you that seem to be really mad at me, and why is that?
And with that I'm done. And no, I'm not going to see a doctor.
I don't think anyone are mad, some of us might be baffled that you keep refusing to see a doctor, because it sounds like you need to go see one.
Yeah, blood coming out of ear isn't anything to have worried about, two years ago.
You deserve monaural hearing for that display of stupidity.
@Alexandru:
It's a good thing you didn't listen to your GP. That hack clearly has only the basest notion of "medicine."
That said, if you still wanna fix your ear, I've got the stuff. From this guy. Real trustworthy type.
- Make a poultice of your own saliva and air from the tails of twenty black cats. From where on the tail, it doesn't matter, but make sure the cats are really black and not just faking to seem cool.
- Pass the poultice underneath a cow three times at dawn. If you're in the Northern Hemisphere, start on the right side of the cow. If in the Southern Hemisphere, begin on the left side. Don't mess this part up!
- Hang upsidedown in twenty-minute intervals all day on the second Sunday of the next month. This will remove all demons that may have taken up residence in your skull. Catch them in the poultice.
- If at this point, your ear is still fucked up, you're probably a replicant or it's psychosomatic or something. The important thing is to never lose the poultice. Otherwise your head demons will get free again.

@Ghostiet said:I'd say it's a second world problem since it relates to this person's health and sense of hearing, but not to his financial state. First world problems would be something superfluous like a scratched iPhone paintjob. Then again, even 'the' first world, USA, doesn't have universal healthcare yet... So does that mean USA is second world instead? Or is Romania zero world?This problem is as First World as it fucking gets.
I think it would be a first world problem.
Third World Problem: Can't find a doctor.
Second World Problem: Can't afford a doctor.
First World Problem: Went to the doctor, asshole bugged me when he (god forbid) tried to talk to me about my health.
My exact reasoning.
For the interest of anyone else with ear problems, as the OP is clearly beyond help at this point...
I have been deaf in my left ear for the last week due to wax build-up and it was the worst thing ever. I have vowed to never try to clean my ears with cotton-buds (q-tips) ever again. Doing so simply pushes the wax further in and causes a blockage.
Your ears clean themselves, so generally speaking, just leave them alone. If they are getting particularly waxy, then buy some ear drops. If that doesn't work, just put some olive oil in your ear for a week and go to your doctor to have them syringed.
Mine were syringed yesterday, and now I can hear fine. It feels pretty magical when they get that wax out and you can hear again.
If you ever have any concerns about your health, go see a doctor.
Doctors know best.
@Alexandru: It annoys people because one day you might be responsible for something other than yourself and since you've proved to be a fucking idiot and possible sociopath people don't like the idea of you being responsible for people or a child. At least that's how I see it.

Because we're moral human beings that don't relish the thought of another person being a little shit about his health for utterly inane reasoning?
Also, we don't need to make you feel bad. According to your other thread you already feel miserable just being you.
Whatever your issue is that led to you cleaning your ear out with a match, you shouldn't let it affect how you deal with human beings, of which your doctor is one.
I know I've already posted in this thread, but I wanted to say this -
Hey OP, looks like you... Met your match.
YEEEEAAAAAH.

So this guy was seeing a doctor and the doctor told him to see a doctor? And he he got mad? And left? Or something? CANADA
Well the man clearly stated he was from Romania, which is in eastern Europe.
Come to think of it this is the 3rd or 4th time I've seen you mention Canada or Canadians in a derogatory manner for no reason and no provocation. Did a Canadian steal your high school sweetheart? It's okay to feel a little insecure but.. Jesus.

I just don't get these people that are so obsessed about the smallest stuff and need to urge you to see a doctor. I know he's a doctor himself, but still. Did any of you had stupid arguments like this?
Yeah, I remember this one time, I tried to get this guy, Alexandru, to see a doctor because he was telling me how he couldn't hear out of his ear and tried cleaning it with a match. He completely blew me off and then started a thread on the internet about how I was the dumb one.
Cleaning your ear with a match? Why not with a toothpick?
...
This is some sad shit right here. Not just he fails to realize that he's fucking stupid, but tries to argue with a doctor about health issues.
If you ear bled when you tried to clean it (with a match? What the fuck?) then it's cause for concern. Ears aren't meant to bleed. Go see a doctor. Even if there's nothing serious, the fact that your hearing in one ear is so muffled is a bad sign.
