if you do use a q-tip only swab the very outside of the whole do not go inside if you would like to know why read the facts written by others below A Q-tip or a tissue rolled up and swabbed around in your ear is an extremely good way to rupture your ear drum and get a middle ear infection.
If the ear wax is excessive, you can soften it with "sweet oil". You can find it at the pharmacy along with instructions on how to use it on the bottle.
You should never stick anything smaller than your elbow in your ear...so don't go probing with a cotton swab or something. Ear wax is healthy because it protects your ear canal from infection so don't get excessive with cleaning it out.
If the oil doesn't work, you should go see your doctor.

Why does liquid come out of ears if the person had ear tubes?
It depends what kind of liquid is coming out. It could just be ear wax, but it could also be a sign of an ear infection. Have your doctor check it out.
Will your ears produce more ear wax to compensate for the ear wax that has been removed?
Not necessarily. Ear wax is produced naturally as a protective coating for the ear canal, and irritation of the canal can cause increased production. When excessive ear wax has been removed, if there is no irritation the production of ear wax should return to normal.

Is Earwax is necessary?
Ear wax has nothing to do with germs. The eustachian tubes (one on each side) help drain the sinuses and ears. Ear wax is a natural "lubricant" of the ear canal, much like saliva lubricates the mucous membranes of the mouth. Ear wax darkens with illnesses or environmental changes. For example, cigarette smokers often produce more and darker ear wax than non-smokers. It is true that ear wax "catches" insects, but only because of the sticky nature of ear wax. It prevents the insect from moving, but that also means the insect can't move OUT. Once trapped, the wax suffocates the insect.
