    Default How often do you clean your ears?

    I dont know why but I always q-tip my ears after the shower, but then i heard that it can harm your ears because you can take out too much wax that would otherwise protect your ears.

    How often do you q-tip your ears?!

    Never.
    Once or twice I have got these hardened chunks of ick and I had to pull it out with tweezers, but other than that, I don't put anything in.
    I did have them medically sucked out once when I had an over production of wax. That was the weirdest experience ever.
    I am impelled, not to squeak like a grateful and apologetic mouse, but to roar like a lion out of pride in my profession.

    You should be doing it every once and awhile, not multiple times a day or anything though. Too much wax can cause problems.
    There are those who believe that dictionaries should not merely reflect the times but also protect English from the mindless assaults of the trendy.
