The video ended with the advice of an ENT surgeon Geoffrey Trenkle that no to remove earwax at home because it could harm one’s ears.

“There are a number of over-the-counter options for removing earwax at home. For the most part, we advise not to do any of them. People use Q-tips. Q-tips are fine if you are just trying to clean the outside of the ear. The second you get that Q-tip into the ear canal, you are potentially causing a problem.”

He also added that using Q-tips for a deep cleaning of ears can cause serious problems like a hole in the eardrum.

If you are also using Q-tips to clean your ears then beware before using it at home.
