Hey so I guess I have an earwax buildup. So can that lead to slight pain in your ear? And does that lead to ear infections which lead to tinnitus? And does anyone else have tinnitus, and do you know if anyone has gotten rid of it? So questions: Can earwax buildup lead to slight pain in your ear? Can earwax buildup lead to tinnitus? Do you have tinnitus? How long? Do you know any ways to stop tinnitus or minimize it? Please help because I'm really scared.

Clear your ears out. If you have some olive oil, warm it slightly and put it on some cotton wool. Squeeze it into your ear and leave wool in for a while to stop it running out. Do this for a couple of days. You can get ear wax drops from the pharmacy too. This will stop the pain and the noise and any possible ear infections. Do not prod your ear with anything because it could perforate the drum. Good luck.
