Suspected earwax impaction with pain, hard consistency, and large size

Suspected cerumen impaction with pain, hardness, and a high possibility of significant blockage. It is recommended that the patient visit the otolaryngology department at a hospital. The cerumen can first be softened and then removed by a physician, a process that usually takes about three days. Alternatively, external auditory canal suction or surgical intervention may be used. If the suspected cerumen impaction is severe, surgery may help alleviate symptoms such as ear canal itching and pain.
