Cerumen with a rush of blood
If a cotton ball is placed in the ear and bloody earwax comes out, it means that the ear is bleeding. The causes can be varied, such as overly vigorous cleaning, a violent blow, an infection such as otitis media, or the presence of a tumor. In all cases, immediate consultation with a doctor is recommended.
Brown earwax
If you notice brown earwax after cleaning your ears, the cause is likely an overproduction of earwax. This means you’re feeling very tired and your body is fighting off the invasion of germs and pathogens. Take care of your immune system with a varied and balanced diet, regular physical activity, hydration, and adequate sleep.
Black wax in the ears
The presence of black earwax generally indicates an overproduction of earwax to fight germs and pathogens. However, if it is accompanied by vaginal discharge and itching, you should consult a doctor, as this could be a symptom of a yeast infection.
