Suggest Treatment For Narrow Ear Canal
Hello Doctor, I was told that my ear canal is narrow and there are possible chances of cerumen getting blocked due to that over a time period. I would like to know if there are ways to naturally make the cerumen come out for people having narrow ear canals. Hariharan G Age: 30

Hi,
Narrow ear canal can be widened to a certain extent only by means of surgery. For this, you need to evaluated clinically by consulting ENT specialist.
ENT surgeon can then decide how to go about the treatment after assessing which part of the canal can be widened and reconstructed, and also to what extent.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
