To safely ease earwax buildup, you can use over-the-counter drops containing carbamide peroxide or hydrogen peroxide. Alternatively, a few drops of mineral oil or baby oil can help soften the wax. Apply a few drops twice daily for up to four days. Precautions: Never insert cotton swabs or any objects into your ear canal, as this can push the wax deeper. Do not use these drops if you have ear pain, fluid drainage, a known ruptured eardrum, or a history of ear surgery. If the blockage persists, please consult a doctor for a safe professional removal.
