What is earwax?

Meet earwax, or scientifically known as cerumen—an intriguing blend of skin cells, sweat, dirt, sebum (our natural body oil), all crafted within our ear canals. It’s a palette of colors, ranging from brown and orange to red, yellowish, and grey.

Why do I have earwax?

Embrace the normalcy of earwax! It’s a guardian for the ear canal’s skin, aiding in cleaning and lubricating. This natural substance also plays a crucial role in shielding against bacteria, fungi, and water, safeguarding your ears from potential diseases.

Variations in earwax production are normal, and excess doesn’t always mean blockage. Interestingly, the most frequent cause of blockage arises from at-home removal attempts. Using cotton swabs or sharp objects can inadvertently scratch the delicate ear skin, triggering an overproduction of wax as a protective response. Even without irritation, pushing wax deeper disrupts the ear’s self-cleaning, potentially resulting in blockage.

How can I tell if my ears are blocked?

Think you might have earwax calling the shots? Look out for telltale signs like hearing loss, that ‘full’ feeling, a hint of ringing (also known as tinnitus), some itching, pain, odd discharge, or even an unexpected cough. When earwax takes center stage in your ear canal, it might bring along pain, hearing hiccups, balance wobbles, and even an unwanted hearing aid feedback (whistling).

Wax production is a personal affair; we don’t all churn it out at the same rate. If you find yourself in dusty workspaces, love those cotton swabs, wear hearing aids, indulge in earphones, or happen to have narrow, flexible, or hairy ear canals—well… you’re more likely to host a bit of earwax buildup.
