From the point of view of Chinese medicine, there is a lot of earwax in the ear. What is the reason?

The earwax in people's ears is commonly known as "earwax" and medically called "earwax". Earwax is generally yellowish waxy debris, but also oily or relatively hard and large. So, how did the hearing come about? It turns out that there is a section of skin (l/3 cartilage section outside the external auditory canal) in the ear lobe, which is different from the skin in other parts of the body, that is, there is a variety of sweat glands called ear glands, and its structure is somewhat similar to that of skin. The skin of the external auditory canal, like other skin, also has a sebaceous gland, which secretes a kind of oil. From a physiological point of view, these secretions in the ear gland are discharged from time to time through the opening. The secretions just spit out from the ear glands look a bit like melted wax at first. They are mixed with the oil discharged from sebaceous glands to form a thin layer and adhere to the skin surface. These primitive earwax appear together with the dust in the ear canal and the broken skin. After drying, they become small yellowish loose slices and accumulate in the ear canal eyes. Some people's ear glands and sebaceous glands secrete too much, and the brown and oily viscous substances discharged have accumulated in the outer eyes before they are dried, and some even flow out of the ears, and some are caked. These are collectively referred to as soft earwax, commonly known as "oil ear" and medically known as oil ear. There are also some people whose ear glands are particularly exuberant; Earwax can't be discharged, and it gradually dries and gathers into a dark brown mass, sometimes as hard as a stone, tightly blocked in the external auditory canal, commonly known as hard earwax, which is called ear embolism in medicine. If you find ear embolism, especially after the ear canal is flooded, if the ear canal swells and causes deafness, hearing loss or even earache, you should seek treatment from a specialist. Don't dig around to avoid ear canal inflammation. Ear symptoms caused by cerumen embolism, especially dry and hard earwax, are often dropped with 5% baking soda solution, 3-4 times a day, 2-3 drops each time. After 3 days, the earwax will soften, and the doctor will take it out with special hooks or pliers, or rinse it with warm salt water.
