Question:
How do you get rid of built up earwax?
Answers:
You can try to buy a product like Debrox, or similar product next to it on the shelf at the drugstore. You put a few drops in your ear, and wait 10 minutes (or something like that--read the box) and it loosens your earwax. Then, it usually helps to rinse out your ear with warm water using a rubber bulb ear syringe. (Some earwax removal kits come with these, although I don't think the Debrox does). Just make sure the water isn't too hot, and don't put it in forcefully. Make sure your head is tilted to the side over a bowl or the sink or something so the water (and earwax) can drain back out. You may need to rinse several times. It's kind of messy, you'll probably get wet. If you aren't comfortable doing it yourself, or if this doesn't work, you can have your doctor do it for you.
NOTE: You should NOT put Q-tips in your ears, you may push it in farther or puncture your eardrum.
