Ear drops which are given for wax for not remove or dissolve the wax. They are used to soften the wax so that ENT specialist can remove it easily either by suctioning or syringing. So don't expect any drops to remove the wax
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
