When 40-year-old Zane Wedding went swimming, he left with more than he bargained for -- a cockroach, which burrowed inside his left ear and stayed there for three days.
Wedding, who is Māori and works for Greenpeace, had taken a dip at his local pool in Auckland, New Zealand, on Friday, when, unbeknownst to him, the creature had crept inside his ear.By the time he got home, he had the sensation that his ear was blocked. "I used some drops to clear it up and fell asleep on the couch later that night," he told CNN Thursday."When I woke up in the morning and it was still blocked I went straight to the doctor.
"Over the weekend I tried anything I could for relief -- ear candles, jumping on one leg, chewing gum, I went for a run -- just anything I could think of [to] get the ear to clear."'A cockroach moving in my head'On Sunday night the wriggling suddenly stopped but the ear was still blocked, so Wedding booked in to see an ear, nose and throat specialist on Monday.
