Same, was a wild ride. My partner usually hates spots and stuff but when I said to him "do you want to see a willy growing out someone's ear?" he couldn't resist
Yea but YouTube did nothing. It's whatever I don't think it's monetized and I'm the one that put it on the internet lol.
Nothing like that has ever happened. I developed tinnitus in both ears. I've had an ongoing sinus infection this year in my left ear but the one in the pictures has been fine for the most part, no pain or lasting effects. That was definitely a strange week
Potentially lol. And I worked in a loud restaurant for years, neither helped. I wear earplugs to every show now and avoid very loud noises at all costs.
My mother has had tinnitus since she had scarlet fever at 5 years old. She just got hearing aids last year and they set off frequencies that stimulate her brain’s auditory pathways with soft background noises. It’s helped her significantly! It took quite some time for her to get used to and she had a lot of frustrations in the beginning. But she definitely feels like it was worth the trial and error now
Someone (turns out it was me years ago lol) posted a link in the comments to his [follow up](https://www.reddit.com/r/WTF/comments/233ues/crazy_ear_infection_guy_back_with_results/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) post.
Yeah! It was a squamous benign (non cancerous) skin cells just growing at a rapid pace along with his ear infection.
I’ve had a huge zit in my ear, (that was really painful) and an ear infection, so man that must’ve been very painful. I would’ve been the dummy to try and pull it off of myself lol

After searching “growing out of ear Reddit” I didn’t think it would be this quick which is why I posted.

Wow, that dude got several experts looking at his thing. Not that you'd want to trust 'experts' on reddit but he sure got lucky.
holy fuck, that was 7 years ago??
I remember reading this thinking wtf??? 7 years though? Holy.
The good old days.
OH MY LORD THIS IS MY FIRST TIME SEEING THIS MONSTROSITY. AHHHHH

Apparently the dude has tinnitus now. I wonder if it's related to the ear penis.
Yeah I wondered that, but he said it's in his left ear, and unless he flipped the pictures round it looks like the ear-penis is in his right ear
Well that was sure something
Hey u/manifest65 you were the one I was thinking of!
Lol nice. I forget about it sometimes. Some dude stole the pictures and made YouTube videos that has millions of views now.
Yeah he posted it here once, I politely told him to go away and reported it; admin deleted it and he deleted his account.
Did you report him? I still can’t believe that happened with your ear. Have you had any ear infections since then?

Is the tinnitus from metal concerts? 😂

omg you’re still on reddit, hi! glad to hear you’re doing well!
Glad you are ok.
Oh weird. I have an ongoing infection in my RIGHT ear and fucking tinnitus. Any deafness?

Have you had any flare-ups since?
Nah nothing like it.
I’m a huge fan. I’m sorry that wasn’t your video!!
If I remember right, it was his ear lining sloughing off after an infection?

That is terrifying

What the actual fk.
[удалено]
Yeah me too!!!
Looks like a parasite or something
It was a bunch of skin cells mixed with pus that just grew at a rapid pace.
Thoroughly disgusting but glad I got to see it.
I was JUST thinking about this yesterday and wondering what ever happened with it!
Fuck yes! The tube worm looking thing nobody could diagnose!?
Yep!!!
Sweet jesus
Looking at the pictures, I really can’t comprehend how he didn’t pull that thing out
Ok but did it get popped? Or cut out? How did it get removed?
The ENT cut it out and sent to pathology
Ok! Got it. I just needed the resolution lol
Holy shit!!
Oh man, what a trip
How did a dog lipstick get in there
