The Importance of Earwax: More Than Meets the Eye
Earwax, scientifically known as cerumen, serves as the ear’s natural defense system. It traps dirt and microorganisms, preventing them from entering deeper into the ear canal. Despite its critical role, many people view earwax as a nuisance, leading to habits like daily ear cleaning that can do more harm than good.
