How do you know this works?

I just tried this for the first time this weekend. I've had ear/jaw/throat pain on my right side for 6-8 months. The doctor said there was no infection and to just take allergy pills to dry it up. That didn't work at all. I did the candling and got out lots of "wax" and some powdery stuff that my boyfriend's mom said was old yeast. I don't know if I believe that though. Also read on a site that the "wax" you see is actually just wax that the candle was coated in and not what's come out of your ear. I feel that this is not true because today I feel less pain and can open my mouth wide again without sharp pain (first time in at least 6 months). Also, I have a lot of drainage on that side. I woke up last night and my whole right side nasal passage was clogged, also sore throat on that side and can hear that squee-gee noise in my ear like built up fluid. I didn't have all that before i candled but I had worse pain. Instinctively I feel like the candling has loosened up a lot of stuck debris but I don't want to harm myself and some of the websites claim this can permanently damage your eardrum, etc.
