Follow these tips to remove ear wax safely at home:
- Take some baby oil, mineral oil or olive oil in a spoon and warm it slightly. Lie on your side and put few drops of oil in your ear canal. Allow the oil to remain for few seconds so that the wax will melt. Then lean your head to one side so that the oil will flow out naturally from your ear.
- You can also use ear drops available in the pharmacy to melt and remove ear wax.
- Put 2-3 drops of warm onion juice in each ear.
- Put few drops of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide in each ear for 10 minutes.
- Vitamin C will help reduce the chances of ear infection.
- One drop of alcohol after bathing can also prevent excessive earwax.
- Do not remove ear wax using pen or any other stick like object.
Our body produces ear wax to trap the dirt from outside. So it is not advised to remove ear wax unless it becomes too excessive, creates problem in hearing or causes ear infection.
