5-  Cleaning of ears is a good thing but many people attempt to clean out their ears using cotton buds. These cotton buds simply pack earwax deeper into the ear, potentially damaging the thin, sensitive skin and negatively affecting the hearing. Most people don’t need to clean out their ears, as the ears need a certain amount of wax for protection and any excess will naturally be expelled. However, in case of suspecting any serious hearing problem, we must immediately consult with an ear-specialist.
