Suggest Remedy For Over Production Of Ear Wax That Is Trapped Inside

A week or so ago I noticed I had an over production of ear wax that wouldnt come out very easily. Then my ear became red and swollen and its causing me a lot of pain in my ear as well as in my jaw. Theres a lot of pressure and lit feels like theres lots of trapped fluid. What is it what caused it and how can I get rid of it?

hello
thnx for your query.When your glands make more earwax than is necessary, it may get hard and block the ear. When you clean your ears, you can accidentally push the wax deeper, causing blockage.it may lead to ear infection also
treatment is to remove the excess wax that is causing the blockage.
1.ear wax softner like Debrox.
2.Irrigating the ear by over the counter kit or by a doctor

its better to go to an ENT specialist if problem persists

hope this ans helps

Regards
