ya, you need to clean your ears on a regular basis.

you are gonna make me vomit

just like it sounds, it accumulates in the ear canal. wax is formed through all of the canal, not just where you can reach with a q-tip. cleaning ears is great but it doesnt remove all the wax so everyone gets some build up and over time it hardens, some need to have a doctor go in and remove it

nope but it doesnt sound very good
have a great day

Yup the Dr's office can clean it out for you. It happens

Yeah. It happens when you don't clean your ears enough

Have heard of it. I don't know what it's called, but I know that ear wax is called cerumen.
If you take baths or go swimming enough, and if you get enough activity, there is no problem.

Yeah, I guess it happens if you don't clean your ears regularly, and if it happens it has to be remove by an specialist because it causes pain.

When you go to the doctors for a checkup, ask if they can flush your ears out with warm water. The warm water will soften the wax and make it wash out easier.

This is often caused by using cotton swabs improperly. They should never be inserted into the ear canal. In fact, the only thing doctors recommend you stick in your ear is your elbow.

The worst thing about wax accumulation is that it can also harden, becoming like a rock in your ear canal. To avoid that, use an eyedropper and put one or two drops of warm oil into your ear a couple of times a week. You can use mineral, baby, or vegetable oil. The warm oil keeps the wax soft and lets it continue to migrate out of your ear.
Put in some peroxide. Some hydrogen peroxide that is diluted by 50 percent with distilled water can soften up the earwax, helping it on its natural journey out of your ear. Using an eyedropper, tilt your head to one side—the problem ear should be facing the ceiling—and squeeze two or three drops of the hydrogen peroxide/distilled water mixture in your ear. You can place cotton in your ear to keep the hydrogen peroxide from leaking out of your ear canal. After a couple of minutes, remove the cotton and allow everything to drain out.
