Vertigo can be a sign of excessive earwax accumulation. An excessive accumulation of earwax, especially when it is impacted, can lead to a blocked ear. A blocked ear can affect hearing and it may be painful. When the earwax build-up hardens and blocks the ear canal, it forms a plug, or blockage. An ear that is blocked due to earwax may lead to: Earache.
When the glands produce too much ear wax (read the next section to find out what causes ear wax build up), the excess wax tends to dry out, harden, and block the ear canal. This stops the ear from cleaning itself, as itâs designed to do. The wax accumulates until you need to do something to deal with the problem.
