The Importance of Earwax
Earwax (cerumen) acts as a natural defense system, preventing harmful particles from entering the ear canal. However, excessive cleaning—especially with cotton swabs—can push wax deeper, causing blockages or even damage. Instead, earwax should be left to work naturally unless discomfort or noticeable changes occur.
