Ear Blockage | Wax Blockage - Frequently Asked Questions

Medically Reviewed by The Medindia Medical Review Team on Dec 05, 2019


Frequently Asked Questions

1. Which doctor should I see for treatment of ear blockage?

You should visit an ENT specialist for ear blockage.


2. Can I use cotton earbuds to remove earwax on a regular basis?

Excess earwax usually falls off on its own and does not require manual removal with earbuds. In fact, earbuds may push the wax deeper down the external ear canal, making it more difficult to fall out naturally.
