Most people tend to ignore removing wax from their ears, which should not be the case.  Wax accumulation in your ears is not healthy. It is recommended to ensure that you remove wax from the ears to keep them clean all the time. Here are 3 common mistakes you could be making while cleaning your ears.

1. Using sharp objects to clean the ears

Ear damage is a common problem. The risk of damaging your ears becomes higher when you insert sharp objects in them. Avoid sharp items by all means. Find soft items such as cotton for proper and safe cleaning of the ears. 

2. Daily cleaning

 Never clean your ears daily.  The rubbing and tugging are likely to cause injuries as well as infections. It is recommended to minimize on the times you clean your ears. Do it twice per week.

3. Inserting cleaning item deep down into the canal

Ears are delicate in nature. They need to be handled with a lot of care. Do not make a mistake of inserting cotton or any other material deeper into the ears for whichever reason. You are likely to sustain injuries if you make such a mistake in life.
