I have wet as well. And you shouldn’t.

You might be getting some, but you are pushing the majority back into your ear. It’s probably why you feel like you must keep cleaning them, because it’s never actually getting out. Eventually you’ll get a clogged ear, and if you haven’t experienced that yet, it fuckin sucks.

Your ear will naturally push the earwax out. Think of your ear as a conveyor belt. When new skin is made it pushes the earwax down the ear canals.

Best thing to do is wash and clean the outside of your ears well everyday. You can use a Q-tip for that. Listen to music at a reasonable level, wear ear protection at concerts, and try to give your ears a break from headphones and earphones periodically.

If it’s really bothering you, get some hydrogen peroxide or ear wax remover and put it in your ear for like 10 minutes. Then use a hand bulb with warm water. Don’t do this all the time though.

Another person with wet earwax. I found a product that’s like a little scoop that I use instead. Wash it and reuse it a few times, not one and done like Q-Tips.

Clinere or something like that? I dunno, I’m not a shill. Just find something for cleaning ears that’s like a scoop instead of like a baseball bat…

Yeah I think it really depends on the type and consistency of your earwax. I’ve been using Q-Tips deep in my ears for my whole life, I assumed now at 32 I had impacted my hearing and had a treasure trove in there, so I bought one of those $20 WiFi ear cams with a scoop you can get from Amazon.

So disappointed, they were sparkling clean. Turns out my ears ARE effectively self cleaning which is why I use the Q-Tips, it helps clean out what my ears have already started ejecting, because that process is wet and itchy.

There’s evidence that manually cleaning earwax stimulates production of even more earwax (plus pieces of wool). Though i guess there’s cases where the self-cleaning function of the ear isn’t as effective. Showering in your ear doesn’t help?
