Serum Problems
The ear is naturally self-cleaning, so earwax buildup should not occur naturally. However, we can inadvertently push earwax into the ear canal when trying to clean it out with a cotton swab.
Symptoms of earwax buildup mirror those of infection and include:
- Dizziness
- ringing in the ear
- itchy
- Drainage
- hearing loss
- A feeling of blockage in the ear
- itchy
- pain
- healthy ears
Dr. Martin points out that the human ear cleans itself naturally, so there is no need to wash the ear canal with soap and water. In addition, earwax cannot be dissolved with water, which makes cleaning with water ineffective.
The symptoms of an ear infection are similar to earwax buildup, so it is crucial not to self-diagnose. If you have symptoms, it may be too late for a prescription to prevent ear problems.
Protect your hearing and see an audiologist or an otolaryngologist at the first sign of a problem.
Conventional medicine may need to provide a remedy before they can use vinegar and alcohol for your ears. To prevent future ear health problems, swimmers may wear earplugs to keep the ear canal dry.
