Ear wax problem

2019-03-24 22:58:38
Lately i have been getting a lot of wax accumulation in my ear. Ear bud doesn't help much either as it only makes it go more deeper inside the ear. Have trouble listening from that ear. There are a few things mentioned on the internet regarding this but should they be tried? Are they recommended? Or going to a doctor to do it is the only right thing?
