At this time, bacteria are easy to enter the void, causing infection, so that the baby’s hearing is damaged.

Tip: parents don’t need to dig earwax often. Keep your baby’s ears clean. Wipe your outer ears with a wet towel. Under normal circumstances, earwax will fall off by itself. If the baby’s earwax is so much that it affects his hearing, it is more appropriate and safe to take him to the hospital.
