r/earwax

It had been quite a while since I cleaned out my son’s ears, safe to say they were FULL!!

Some of the darkest earwax I’ve removed, I think it had hardened and stayed coated on the edge of the canal for a while. Wish I got a clearer picture.

Ive had ear issues for a year now, only in one ear. Started with a blocked ear, after removing my ear continously clogged so I treated it as a fungal infection and luckily the growth slowed down. I have an appointment this month (only took months of waiting). Now the only symptom of my ear is the fact it sheds like a snake every month....anyone have any opinions?

Edit: found the same formation in my left ear. It has been a year TO THIS EXACT MONTH that I had issues with my rught ear. I check both my ears every month and the exact wax/tissue formation formed in my left ear. Im just devastated and exhausted. Another thing to bring up at my appointment in 2 weeks....

This took around 30min to get out

Hi guys, I am so excited to share some recent skin flakes/sheets that have been coming out of my ears the past two weeks.

I have Ear eczema and chronic daily allergies so it’s definitely a consistent thing. The first 3 are from a sheet that fell out today when I barely put the tip of my pinky nail on the outer edge of my ear canal.

You can even see the imprint of the tiny pores & hair follicles that casted into the sheets in the first and last set. Aren’t they beautiful? 😍🥹

Let me know what y’all think please!

Oh btw, the green thing that’s holding it in the 4th and 5th pictures are the end of a floss pick, they are a great tool for digging them out, just be careful.
