Pain in ear after cleaning with earbuds
I was cleaning my ear with earbuds and after that i started to have a slight pain and and little buzz in ears
I think i might peel off my skin in ear or maybe i pushed the earwax deep inside
I don't really know what happened but it's either of those 2 cases
Could u please suggest me what to do, or ointment or eardrops do i need to use for this

Hello,
It might be due to skin abrasion while cleaning with ear buds.
Take one pain killer to reduce pain and inflammation.
Try to avoid water entry into the ear otherwise it will cause infection or fungus in the ear canal.
Use wax dissolving ear drops for softening of wax.
Health Tips
