Earwax is also called cerumen. If there is no discomfort in removing large pieces of cerumen with tweezers, there is no effect, but if there are symptoms such as ear stuffiness, tinnitus, and hearing loss, damage may have been caused. If you use tweezers to remove large pieces of cerumen without damaging the skin of the external auditory canal or tympanic membrane, and if there is no discomfort after removing the large pieces of cerumen, there is generally no effect. The head of the tweezers is relatively sharp, and it is easier to touch the skin of the external auditory canal in the process of digging out cerumen. The skin of the external auditory canal is relatively thin, and there is a distribution of facial nerves under the skin, so after the injury, there may be radiating pain on the same side of the face, and localized pain in the periapical region and other uncomfortable symptoms. The tweezers are long, and if they go too far into the ear canal, they may damage the eardrum, causing perforation of the eardrum, tinnitus, hearing loss, and other discomfort. If you have a lot of cerumen in your ear, you can go to a regular ENT department and let a professional doctor remove the cerumen with tweezers or with a special instrument. If the cerumen is hard, you should first consider softening the cerumen, for example, by using sodium bicarbonate ear drops, and then gently removing the cerumen, to reduce the impact on your body.
