Its better to clean on weekly basis as it may start itching if you do regularly and i like to do it atleas once in week, but my laziness make me to do nothing so i forget to do as well.

Hi there! Welcome to mylot, I used to be like you and cleaning my ears after bath! But thats change now after I get in so much pain. one time that I'm cleaning my ear and I push it too hard and my ear get swollen and its too painful. And I went to the doctor after few days that I can't stand the pain and let it check, thankfully its not infected apart from being swollen and the doctor gave me antibiotics and some ear drops. And now I'm just cleaning my ears once a week or sometimes after few day but I am very careful. Thanks!

Neither. Do you know that you are not supposed to use a cotton bud to clean your ears. The cotton might be stuck in your ears, causing more harm than good. I've tried having the cotton detached in my ears, and luckily it was not deep in my ears. It is not advisable to use cotton buds to clean your ears. =) Hope that helps you.
