Ear is a self cleansing organ.
Wax is propelled out of the ear.
Sometimes this mechanism gets affected and wax accumulates in ear. You will only be aware when ear is blocked or starts paining.
So use Soliwax ear drops for 3 days every two to three months.
There is no 'SAFE' way to remove wax at home,once accumulated,visit ENT doctor

Usually wax gets disloged itself..if it is accumulating recurrently means , mostly ur ear canal must b narrow which is causing the accumulation..at home u can use either dewax or soliwax or waxonil ear drops 3to4 drops 4times in a day for 5days if needed..if u feel like ur ear is totally bloked, then u need to get it cleaned by an ENT specialist..never use an ear bud urself to clean it up , there is no own safe way..
