I clean my ears every morning when I get out of the shower. They seem to never be clean, they always itch, and sometimes I clean them 2 or 3 times during the day because they itch. Whats happening? is that normal?

You should not clean your ears too much and too further because the wax would be pushed back, and accumulate in the inner part of the ear (condition called impacted cerumen) that could cause hearing difficulty and infection.

Yep, it's normal. Dirt and debris are caught by the hairs. Of course, it will tickle. I clean my ears just as you do. You're not supposed to stick the cotton swab in your ear because you can push it in too far and hurt yourself. Also, it supposedly rubs off the hairs you need to help with hearing. Over time, you lose so many hairs and your hearing declines.

You SHOULD NOT clean the wax from your ears too often, because it's actually good for your ears.

Clean it every two weeks or so, and not TOO much.
