You should, in fact, not be using any at all. Ears are self-cleaning, the wax is precisely what transports gunk to the outside all you're probably doing is pushing it back in. Some soapy fingering of the outsides while showering is all you need to finish that task.

I tried that - instead of my ears clogging after ~1 year with q-tips, it now clogged after 3 months

I hate ear wax

When you suddenly stop things can clog, yes, go to a doctor. It might also be a muscle in your neck or something, giving the impression of things being clogged.

No, it was an actual clog that I had to get removed, but thanks for the tip. I haven't been using any since my last cleaning either, guess I'll see soon whether things actually improve!

My ear holes are so large that I could probably fit 4 q-tips in. I do an helical wipe with the q tip, no wax is getting pushed in, its getting scraped out. Some one with a tiny ear canal should not be ramrodding with a q-tip though
