A member asked:
Is it normal for a little chunk of ear wax falls on outside of your ear hole? why does this happen? how can stop this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Normal: The ear wax produced in your ear canal has just one exit, so it's not unusual for this to happen from time to time. No need to do anything to stop it.
