Earwax Blockage: Symptoms and Preventions



When your body produces too much earwax or the existed earwax is pushed too far into your ear canal, this condition causes the earwax blockage that is also called cerumen impaction. Earwax is very helpful to defense your ears. It cleans and protects your ear canal by slowing the growth of bacteria and trapping the dirt. Some earwax is normal.
The blockage may develop when we try to get the wax out of the ear by using a cotton swab or by other objects, but you push the wax further into the ear that creates an obstruction.
