Many products or home remedies claim that applying drops to the ear can restore hearing. These drops often contain ingredients like:
Hydrogen Peroxide: To soften earwax.
Olive Oil or Garlic Oil: Believed to have antimicrobial properties.
Herbal Extracts: Marketed for their purported healing benefits.
Does It Work?
For Earwax Buildup: Certain drops (like over-the-counter earwax softeners) can help dissolve wax and improve hearing if the issue is caused by a blockage. However, improper use can push the wax further into the ear or cause irritation.
For Infections or Inner Ear Damage: Drops alone are unlikely to address underlying issues like infections, nerve damage, or structural problems in the ear.
