how the hell do you get rid of a popped ear ??
for about 3 days my ear has popped and cant hear very well out of it...its like i have just taken off in a plane or gone through a tunnel on the train.
i have tried everyway told to me....holding your nose and breathing heavily, moving your jaw up and down, eating boiled sweets the absolute lot and yes my ears are clean lol.
anyone got any other ways?

Use a fucking big syringe (or these days a proper little machine thing) to squirt hot soapy water in to your ear quite hard.
Feels wierd, hurts a TINY bit sometimes, but the fucking stupidly enourmous chunks of wax that fall out your ear are nothing short of mental
Well worth getting done, the nurse woman can do it, dont need a proper doctor.

Just get a cotton bud right (deep, ie touch your ear drum deep) in there and have a dig around
disclaimer.. don't blame me if you go in ham fisted and burst your ear drum though.

I'd say you've got an ear infection. It has been going around.
DO NOT go down the route of poking things down it, YOU WILL regret it.
The doctors will give you ear-drops, which you will need to use 2 or 3 times a day, job done.
If it's not an infection, then as others have said, they will syringe. I actually quite liked it, it felt nice and the relief is immense. I had to use warm oil in my ear several times a day for a week before to soften the wax, then they syringe your ears and LOADS of shit comes out. Maybe even some lumps of tissue and/or cotton-wool??!!

See the doctor, thats the only thing you should be doing.

Audiology.. my field... stand aside..
your ear canal supports tiny hairs which are covered in wax to catch the dust.. sometimes the wax can build up and sit against your ear diaphram (drum) this can give an indication or a feeling of a popped ear
decreased sound and NO noise is usualy wax on the diaphram.
decreased sound WITH noise indicates a perferated diaphram sometimes there can be pain..
if there s no pain and you think there maybe a chance of lots of wax.. then you should..
fill your ear with olive oil and bung it with a large lump of coton wool to keep the oil in for as long as possible.. then when you take it out... havea hot bath with your head under the water for a while.. this should work it out..
DO NOT hold your nose and blow.. if you WANT a blown ear drum then you can do this and it is the easiest way of hurting it..
you can also go to the docs for an opiontment and get them to wash out your ear.. this is really good and your hearing will be crystal afterwards.. but if you only get one done this will show up your other ear for how bad it is..
i would try the oil thing first...
if you are getting dizzy with it at all... go to the doc becuse this wouldd suggest an infection of the ear canal..
good luck
if your feeling brave you could do what i do which is wash your ear out with a jet of warm water yourself.. altho not reccomended unless you know what you are doing.. and how long to wash it for and at what sort of power.

it may burst your ear drum how i said if it you realy hard to breath out, but if your careful and just try and blow a little bit at a time etc and try a little harder and harder then its fine and it does work...
but as said above its only going to burst your ear drum if you actually try to...so a little bit at a time...common sense realy

don't stick anything in your ear!
you'll never stop if you start...my left ear I can barely hear anything out of as when I used to swim a lot when little I used to get a painful ear (lots of infections and discomfort) so used to stick things in it as you do. Now...my ear is near constantly uncomfortable...and I have an obsession with sticking things in it, whether it be tissue/cotton buds...and have infections all the damn time. I also know if I go to get my ears syringed I'll want it done every day as I'm obsessed with my ears being clean
Go to the drs and get some ear drops...or get some earex drops (can get them from boots/tescos) which smells like albas oil but does work...no good if you are allergic to peanuts though as the main ingredient is peanut oil...so don't die from that please anyone

After having them syringed I recommend using ear candles, they're really relaxing and remove a lot of wax. You really need a helper though, preferably a fit one who follows it up with massage and blow job
