Ear wax or Cerumen is a normally produced by our ears to keep them healthy. If wax is impacted then it needs to be removed after making it soft. Ear drops are used to soften the wax but they can't remove it. Impacted wax needs to be removed by a specialist under vision
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required. Meanwhile you can use Otorex ear drops to soften the wax
