What Is Chunky White Stuff Deep Inside Ear?
my daugter is 12, she asked me to clean her ears and I noticed she has white chunky stuff down deep in her ear. We put peroxide in her ear to try to clean it out. Nothing came loose. She had her tonsils & adnoids out several years ago. Is this an ear infection? She says it feels like it is clogged

Hi
Welcome to

This white stuff is ear wax, which accumulates in side the external ear with time.
No, it may not be the infection but the ear wax which can be remove by doctor or flush out it by water syringeing.
You can also try anti ear wax solution and keep it in ear for at least 8 hours and after that use small cotton ear buds to remove it.
Hope my answer will help you and also write to us in case of any further queries.
