Wet yellow earwax is due to the fact that the cerumen glands themselves secrete oily earwax, so the water content of the earwax is relatively high. If the cerumen glands secrete more vigorously, it will lead to extra earwax, which will easily block the outer ear canal and will appear as a sticky and yellow discharge when pulled out. Wet yellow earwax can also be caused by pathological factors, such as otitis externa, otitis media or eczema of the external ear canal, which may result in oozing from the external ear canal. In the case of otitis media, there may also be pus in the ear, and if it is mixed with earwax, it may appear as a wet yellow state, so it is important to take appropriate treatment measures depending on the cause.
