i gnereally dont use ear buds asthe doctors say it damages teh ear if you dont do it properly, its always better to use a dewax solution once in 2 months so that the earwax melts and comes out

Hi I use earbuds to clean my ears. I have also read some where that using buds are not good for years but don't know any other alternatives. I have never heard about dewax solution. Is it safe to pour liquids into the ear? Did any doctor prescribe this to you?

That sounds kinda disgusting. So does the ear wax just some dribbling out of your ears at random times?

i have never heard of dewax solution. that sounds good. for me, i do use the ear buds but occassionally as like you said, i might damage my ear. thus i don't use it often. but we have a type of oil also, i think it's mustard though i'm not too sure. it helps to clean the ear as well. we put a few drops into the ear and rub the ear.
