Ear Candles: Are They Safe? Do they work?
In a word-No. They do not remove wax and can damage your ear in the process. Common injuries are burns, obstruction from candle wax, and perforations to the ear drum. There are no proven studies that support ear candles as a safe, effective way to remove ear wax.
