It used to be that is you had a heavy wax buildup in your ears, your doctor or a nurse or PA would clean it out for you.

But starting about ten years ago, that changed. Now they just tell you to buy an ear-cleaning kit with fluid from a pharmacy and do it yourself.

At least, that's how it is in the USA now. I wonder if it's like that in other parts of the world?
