Can I use cotton buds to clean my ears?
No, it’s not recommended, as you usually push the ear wax back down your ear canal, causing the ear wax to build up. It can completely block your ear and cause infection and hearing loss. You may also push the wax into your eardrum, which may hurt and damage your eardrum. Find out more about ear wax removal.
