Ear wax is more than just a simple substance; it’s a complex mixture of oils, sweat, dead skin cells, and other components produced by our ear canals. While many perceive it as a nuisance, it’s a vital part of our body’s defence mechanism, preventing foreign particles like dust and bacteria from harming the sensitive inner ear.
