@sunidhi The ears naturally produce earwax. The natural motions of the body, such as chewing and speaking, will usually help guide earwax out of the ear canal. Sometimes a person produces excess earwax. When this is the case, some at-home treatments include:
Earwax can be too hard and packed to leave the ear canal naturally. When this happens, a few drops of certain liquids, such as baby oil, glycerin, or mineral oil, can help. Putting 2-3 drops in the ear may help soften the wax so it can escape more easily. Ear syringing can follow softening the wax. A person can purchase a syringing kit at their local drugstore or see their doctor. About 15 to 30 minutes after putting in drops to soften the earwax, a person can use the syringing kit to introduce water into the ear. The water should be room temperature to avoid dizziness.
