A member asked:

How do you get rid of inner ear blackheads and prevent them from coming back?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Outer ear: Your inner ear can't get blackheads since it's a nerve structure deep inside your head. If you mean inside your ear canal, have an ENT look for skin conditions and tell you more. Don't insert anything inside the ear canal to scratch/pop the bumps; you can get a bad infection.
