    How often do you clean your ears? Do you use q-tips, or some other method?

    Why are we not supposed to use Q-tips?

    As for how often, I don't know, once or twice a week I guess.

    Because Qtips push the wax back in into the ear canal. I use this solution that breaks up the wax....then it drains out of the ear. I do it about twice a month and I clean out my ears everyday with a washcloth.

    Same here, I didn't know we were not supposed to use Q-Tips though.

    I try to do it once or twice a week. When I had hair, I never bothered to do it more than once a month. Now that you can see my ears, I am a little more aware of the waxy crap. I find the best tool is the cap off a BIC pen. The thin part that clips on the pocket. Works great.

    Because of the chance to damage your tympanum (eardrum), which is fairly fragile and quite important to hearing.

    I always noticed the warning on the box do not stick into ear canal...and as a kid I'm thinking 'how do you do that?' you know, you can't see it so how would you be sure?

    By not doing it. It's like that saying about not sticking anything in your ear smaller than your elbow.
