i dunno, i'd think the fizzing sound would be ear shattering, potentially damaging to the drum if it actually came in contact, and basically it's a good idea never to put shit in your ears, aside from the occasional q-tip...
I've put hydrogen peroxide into my ears before with a q-tip because it helps eliminate cuts. The fizzing is not a problem at all. But if it prevents colds then that is good :D

Lol ur nuts... you're not gonna put what, 100% H2O2 down your ear haha :p I had some ear cannal infections and I use H2O2 to cure it, it's perfectly safe inside your ear.
meh, i just read an article about someone who had a baby spider get into their ear canal once, and it sounded like someone firing a machine gun against their head every time it walked around. Figured this was some crazy ploy to get people to fuck themselves up, not that wikipedia is known for their lies.
"Remarkable results can be achieved in curing colds and the flu within 12-14 hours when we administer a few drops of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O2) into each ear. The H2O2 starts working within 2-3 minutes in killing the cold or flu. There will be some bubbling and in some cases mild stinging might occur. I do this myself and I can assure you that it is not painful in any way. It tickles more than anything.
That doesn't sound right. Hasn't it been proven that the cold/flu can enter through mouth/nose/whatever.
How exactly does it make sense that it could enter through the ear but no the others? I don't know enough on the subject to make a claim of what is or isn't right, but just based on common sense it sounds like a load of bull.
As for h-peroxide in your ear, it's ok to use sometimes, but it can be very irritating if used often. That shit drys the hell out of skin. Dermatologists used to tell patients to clean their skin with it to avoid acne, but as it turned out the drying effect of the h-p was very noticable after a long period of use. Dry cracked, old looking skin was the result.
So I'd imagine that if you used it in your ear for long stretches of time you'de have dry/cracked/painful skin in your ear.
I'm surprised nobody knew this, yes it's true. When I was younger I used to have a lot of earwax and the doctors told me to clean my ears out with hydrogen peroxide. I no longer have tons of earwax but I still use it periodically. It works like a charm and leaves your ears feeling squeaky clean.
And about it shattering your eardrum and cracking your ear canal ROFL
theres a lot of things that can cure stuff but medicine companies won't let the public know about it why? because they are there for a profit
look at the guy years and years ago the day before he was to release his engine that ran on water... the next day him and his entire family linage was dead... ?

Anybody can confirm any of this?
that sounds fake
since they are viruses, once you start to feel symptoms, the cold/flu has already spread to enough places (e.g. the throat) so that even killing viruses at the ear tissue with hydrogen peroxide wouldn't have an effect

also to note: why the would a virus enter through your ear? going through the mouth is much more efficient. you have both a wet surface (very important) AND a place where you would come into contact with the most airborne viruses. nig
