I recently completed yet another article about ears. This one is about how to get rid of earwax. I’ve done my best to make sure we don’t rely on the old cotton-tipped swab, because those have the potential to cause more harm than good, especially if you’re one of those unlucky people who produces more ear wax than normal. Stuffing Q-tips down your ears means you’re risking the possibility of jamming a big chunk of ear wax even further down your ear. If you do that, chances are you’ll have to pay for a very expensive visit to the hospital. So, put the Q-tip down and let me talk to you about how to remove ear wax safely.
