Patient's question:
The baby is six months old. Today, when the baby fell asleep, I noticed earwax in his ear. I used a tissue to roll it into a small ball and gently cleaned his ear. I'm not sure if it was a bit forceful, and I'm worried it might have affected the baby.Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you clarify your doubts. After you clean your baby's ears, there should be no discomfort or crying, and it should not affect the baby at all.Recommendation: In the future, avoid cleaning your child's ears on your own. In most cases, earwax will naturally fall off with chewing and swallowing.
This is the advice for the question, "My baby is six months old. Today, when the baby was sleeping, I noticed earwax in his ears. Will it affect him?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
