* Please excuse this post if you’re doing something like eating. Thanks.

Earlier today, while I was busy reading ebook on my phone, my right ear was buzzing as if I was hit by a blast of noise, then it tickles inside. It gave me much thinking if when was the last time I cleaned it, then I already made a choice to have it clean instead. So I asked the boyfriend to get me cotton buds, and right away I cleaned my ear, I was right, it was awful. Sure you do what I meant. After cleaning both ears, I feel itchy free. Now, I decided to clean them every other day.

It is good to clean the ears, but you need to be cautious.

I probably do it twice a week. I don't force it because we're not supposed to go deep in our ear canal. Growing up, my sister had what you call "molasses ear". Out of the blue, with no warning, one of her ears would just start draining ear wax. It was like a tiny waterfall of wax. Apparently, that is common with children with a lot of allergies. She eventually grew out of it.

Since I shower my hair every other day, I will use my q-tip and gently clean my ears. For a deep ear clean which is very rare, my mom uses those sticks to clean my ear. It feels good when she does it.
