Zane Wedding, a man from Auckland, in New Zealand, had a rather unusual experience, where a dead cockroach had to be removed from inside his ear. For three days he had been complaining about feeling a squirming sensation in one of his ears so eventually went to a doctor. The New Zealander had been swimming last Friday, January 14, at his local swimming pool. Later that evening, after he had dozed off on his sofa, he woke up feeling his ear was blocked, and he thought he could feel something moving in there. Having enough of the problem, on Saturday 15 he went to get his ear syringed, and was given antibiotics to help with any infection. He was instructed to use a hairdryer to dry the side of his head, and that he should go back again if he still felt something inside.
