Ear Wax

katiemac · 2007-07-22 08:28:17

I sometimes have excessive ear wax but have difficulty removing it from my ears. I've tried cotton buds but chemist suggested not to use them as they can push the wax back down the ear canal or whatever it is called. I am very conscious of me ears being clean and dread the thoughts of a ball of dirty, brown/yellow wax…

I sometimes have excessive ear wax but have difficulty removing it from my ears. I've tried cotton buds but chemist suggested not to use them as they can push the wax back down the ear canal or whatever it is called.
I am very conscious of me ears being clean and dread the thoughts of a ball of dirty, brown/yellow wax nestling at the front of my ear for all to see.
Any ideas on how to remove it?

Ummm ear drops maybe?

Cotton buds are grand though unless we are talking about chunks which might fall back. If you use cotton buds once a day to wipe it off, then it should be fine.

Ask your chemist if they can recommend drops or go to your GP and get your ears syringed or something.
