A member asked:
What are the worst symptoms that may caused by earwax?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hearing Loss: Some people make more wax than others either chronically or once in a while. Have someone (doc or nurse) look in your ears when you are concerned and use over the counter ear wax melters like Cerumenex only cheaper. Follow the directions. Hearing impairment is about the worst side effect of excess wax. Itching, wax dripping out when you least expect it.
