Earwax
Earwax, or ear discharge, is often a symptom of an infection such as an ear infection. However, this discharge can also be caused by a violent shock. These shocks include head trauma and a medical emergency. In any case, you should consult a doctor immediately.
Dry Earwax
Dry earwax can be a symptom of a dry ear canal caused by eczema, lack of earwax production, psoriasis, allergies, or even chickenpox. Therefore, it is essential to determine the exact cause in order to treat the condition.
It is important to remember that cotton swabs should only be used to clean the outer ear. Otherwise, they will push the earwax into the inner ear, causing blockage and secondary infection.
