Answers:
Waxy material or sebum is in fact secreted by most areas of the skin, though more prominently in some, from sebaceous glands!. Generally it is warn or washed off by everyday activities!. However the skin of the external ear canal is protected both from rubbing and from moisture, so the wax can accumulate!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Earwax is made in the outer ear canal!. This is the area between the fleshy part of the ear on the outside of your head (the part you can see) and the middle ear!. The skin in the outer ear canal has special glands that produce earwax!. The fancy name for this waxy stuff is cerumen (say: suh-roo-mun)!.

After the wax is produced, it slowly makes its way through the outer ear canal to the opening of the ear!. Then it either falls out or is removed when you wash!. In most people, the outer ear canal makes earwax all the time, so the canal always has enough wax in it!.

So why do we need wax!? Earwax has several important jobs!. First, it protects and moisturizes the skin of ear canal, preventing dry, itchy ears!. Second, it contains special chemicals that fight off infections that could hurt the skin inside the ear canal!. Finally, it acts as a shield between the outside world and the eardrum!. When dust, dirt, and other things enter your ear, the earwax traps them so they can't travel any furtherWww@Answer-Health@Com
