Hardened ear wax
Hi doctors..I have bought myself DEWAX ear drops as I can see the wax in my ear has hardened and when mom flashes light in the ear..you can clearly see it. This has been causing discomfort in my ear since a week. Is it safe to use dewax?

It is not advisable to use ear wax softeners in case a ear drum is damaged. It will be better if you consult a doctor first.
