Ear-Nose and Throat Doctor (ENT) Questions Ear wax

What is the best way to clean ear wax in the elderly?

My mother tends to have a lot of ear wax in her ears, which causes her to not hear properly. What is the best way to clean her ear wax? She's also 71 years old.

If necessary (and in many or most cases it isn't), you can use various over-the-counter ear wax cleaning kits. If this is unsuccessful or undesired, then you can have her see a doctor.
