How do i get rid of ear wax in my child's ear after pe tubes were put in?

ENT follow-up visit: During routine follow-up appointments, the ENT doctor will evaluate the child's pe tubes (position, obstruction, signs of infection, etc...). At that time, the doctor can remove earwax (cerumen) from the ear canal. Avoid using Q-tips or other foreign objects to remove earwax (unless the wax is already at the outside opening), because one can unintentionally push earwax deeper into the canal.

No need: Cerumen or ear wax is a natural protectant of the ear canal, so just need to clean the outside with a cloth, remove the excess coming out and that's all. Avoid using q-tips inside the ear canal.

Olive oil: Try an drop or two of olive oil in each ear daily for about a week. Would check with your ENT doctor to make sure he/she has no contraindication to this treatment.
