A. Ear should be only cleaned superficially very gently by an ear bud when the baby is sleeping. Do not try to clean deehp inside by yourself as it gcan cause injury so consult your doctor for that . if the wax is impacted you can use waxiklin ear drops one drop twice a day for 7 days in ear it will help .

A. hi mom. normally it is quite common to have little bit of year wax you can clean your baby's ears with little wash cloth which is is dipped in warm water and just squeeze it. , but clean it only outside of the ear not inside you can just wipe it outside of ear and do not try to push it inside the ear. Babyhug Ear Syringe you can use gently to clean the ear. you can watch videos online regarding usage. any further ear problems or excessive ear wax .you have to go to the pediatrician to clean it
