HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR EAR WAX

Earwax, also known by the medical term cerumen  is a yellowish waxy substance secreted in the ear canal of humans and other mammals. It protects the skin of the human ear canal, assists in cleaning and lubrication, and also provides some protection from bacteria fungi, insects and water.
Earwax consists of shed skin cells, hair, and the secretions of the ceruminous and sebaceous glands of the outside ear canal Major components of earwax are long chain fatty acids both saturated and unsaturated  alcohols, squalene and chloesterol Excess or compacted cerumen can press against the eardrum or block the outside ear canal or hearing aids, potentially causing hearing loss.
Excessive earwax may impede the passage of sound in the ear canal, causing conductive hearing loss. Hearing aids may be associated with increased earwax impaction It is also estimated to be the cause of 60–80% of hearing aid faults
