Waxy ears

[visitor1]

DS has really waxy ears...i mean i can clean them daily and the very next day they are waxy again.

Should i be concerned or is this normal?

My DS is the same. I've had my dr check them a couple of times, and he always dismisses my concern and says they look fine, and as long as the wax is coming out, there is no big deal.

HOWEVER, we recently had a hearing test done on Peter (long story), and they found some lack of hearing due to fluid behind his ear drums. I have NO IDEA if this and the wax are related in any manner whatsoever, but suddenly I find myself doubting my dr a little. Although, come to think of it, his wax has decreased of late (perhaps hence the fluid build up), so maybe the "flow of wax" is actually a good thing.

Sorry, not much help really, pretty confused myself. But I wanted to bump you up!

Well the Little Guy is the same, Ears are self cleaning models and his are very efficient, but if it has anything to do with hearing, it doesn't his. He can hear his sister whisper at the other end of the house and is off to find her lol.
