<h2> I use a cotton swab to remove earwax.</h2>

Explanation:

The excessive cerumen accumulation in the ear is the accumulation of excess of earwax in the ear canal. Earwax is secreted by the glands in the ear canal. It helps to save the ear by trapping the dust and other external particles that can damage the ear.

The earwax build up in the ear and blocks the ear canal. This leads to the temporary loss of hearing and pain in ear. One must ask for a help from doctor while suffering from the impacted cerumen as self cleaning can harm the ear.
