How can i increase ear wax production?

Alternative: There isn't much you can do to change how much wax you make. It depends on your skin type. You can, however, soothe the ear canal skin with over the counter and prescription preparations. See an ENT for an examination & specific advice before putting anything anything into your ears. If you have a damaged eardrum, you shouldn't put most things in your ears.
