For many people, earwax buildup can be an issue. Some people, especially for those in a humid climate and whose ancestors came from colder climates, natural produce excess earwax or dry, hard earwax.

 Other possible causes of earwax build-up are:

• Narrow or hairy ear canals.
• Bony growths in the outer ear.
• Age, as earwax becomes drier with advancing years.

Symptoms of earwax buildup include:

• Earache
• Hearing loss
• Tinnitus
• Vertigo
• Recurring ear infections

Earwax build-up can be a minor problem. There are those for whom it is a chronic dilemma. If it is causing you issues, you should seek professional assistance. You should never attempt to remove earwax with your fingers, cotton buds or any other objects. This can create further blockages that are harder to remove. Even worse, using a hard object, such as a bobby pin or a car key, can result in irreparable hearing damage.
