About Earwax
Earwax, or cerumen, is a natural substance produced in the ear canal that helps protect the inner ear from dust, dirt, and other foreign particles. It varies in texture from dry to wet and is usually yellow or brown in color. However, when too much wax accumulates—known as impacted earwax—it can interfere with hearing and cause discomfort.
It is important to avoid cleaning the inside of your ears with cotton swabs or other objects, as this can push the wax further into the ear canal, worsening the blockage. Over-the-counter earwax softening drops may help to loosen wax safely, but professional removal is recommended when buildup is significant.
What Causes Earwax Buildup?
Common factors that can lead to excessive earwax include:
- Overproduction of earwax due to genetics or medical conditions like allergies or eczema
- Using earbuds, cotton swabs, or other items that push wax deeper into the ear canal
- Frequent exposure to dust, dirt, or water
- Insufficient or irregular ear cleaning
- Narrow or damaged ear canals
- Excessive hair growth in the ear canal
- Skin conditions affecting the scalp or the ear area
- Inflammation of the ear canal, such as otitis externa (“swimmer’s ear”)
At Health and Wellness Medical Clinic, we are committed to helping you maintain healthy ears and providing expert care whenever earwax becomes a problem.
