Wax or Cerumen removal is usually done after making it soft. If you are sure that you have wax then use Otorex ear drops three drops three times daily for five days which will soften the wax. Then visit nearby ENT specialist who will either use syringing or suction to clear your wax. Both the types of procedures are painless and takes about five to ten minutes
