From my understanding is we should not dig baby's ears for ear wax. Then how old is your child when you start clearing the ear wax using the ear stick?
When my 2yr old boy was admitted to kkh, dr did a full check up on him.. ear probes and all.. and she commented "eee ur ear so dirty la boy".
I simply said "Try cleaning a 2yr old boy's ear. See if its possible or not". *roll eyes*
