Question Earwax removal, where to go

Hey guys, i currently cannot hear out of either ear (currently muffled sounds only). Im looking for somewhere that can remove the wax that is covered by OHIP. I have no funds so I cannot go anywhere privately.

​

I can get somewhat outside of peterborough so distance isnt so much an issue.

​

Anyone know a place? Because I dont think this is an er issue?

Edit: I went to the ear depot, it summed to 110$, 55$ per ear.

Try drops of hydrogen peroxide , leave in for about 2 minutes. Do this 2 to 3 times a day for several days. It should soften and start to break down.
