Hi,
For a number of years now, I haven’t produced any ear wax. I went to the doctor about
2-3 years ago and he looked in both ears, saw they were free from wax and said I didn’t have a problem.
First, should I be producing ear wax and is it a problem if I don’t?

Time has gone by and for about the last year or so, I have pains around my head which feels like a small pressure build up. I can make my ears sort of click, as if ear wax is present, and there is also a strange sensation where I feel my whole head clicks.

Also to mention that my sleep hasn’t been good for sometime now and only manage 4-5 hours at most a night. I have felt a bit light headed recently and also within the last couple of weeks, have been forgetting usual things I have known or been doing for years.

All the above could be unrelated and just one of those things but there is a worry there is something going on.
Could there be ear wax building inside my head that can’t make it out through the ear.
Anyone have any thoughts/advice.
Thanks

Sorry can't answer about lack of ear wax but think it best if you go and see your doctor. Feeling light headed and getting forgetful could be caused by a number of things so best err on the cautious side.

Best wishes
