• First method to clean clogged ears or ear wax is with Hydrogen Peroxide (2% or 3%). Put a few drops of hydrogen peroxide with the help of a syringe or fluid dropper. The moment it reacts with the ear wax you will hear bubbling sounds that indicates the cleaning process. Lie down inverted with that ear on a pillow or sheet. Once the wax softens and comes out, clean the ear with a soft cloth or tissue.
• The same cleaning process can be done naturally with the help of some warm olive oil or baby oil. Olive oil is an excellent natural ear wax cleaner. Pour a few drops of warm olive oil with the help of a dropper. Let the oil remain in the ear canal for a few seconds. It will help melt and soften the wax. Once the wax comes out wipe off the excess oil with a tissue.
• You can also go for medicated wax removal ear drops. These drops are meant to soften the ear wax gradually and clean the clogged ears.
• If the ear wax problem is chronic and the wax has hardened for a long time, it is advisable to visit an ENT specialist. He will do a proper examination of blocked ears and might suggest a medication and use some special instruments for cleaning.
• Apart from internal ear cleaning, it is very important to keep the outer ears clean too. To clean your outer ears use a mild soap or a shampoo to remove the dirt and grime and wipe off with a dry towel softly. It is important to keep your ear dry and clean always to avoid recurring ear infections.
