Good for Dry Ears

I purchased this because my doctor recommended moisturizing my ears to prevent ear wax build up. I put some liquid into one ear at night and then sleep with that ear "up" so the liquid stays in better. Some will always leak out a bit, so have a tissue handy and expect some stickiness on the skin around your ear. I only treat one ear at a time because sometimes my ears get plugged up, so I always want to have one ear that "works"
I have found this does help the itchiness in my ears and I do think it softens my ear wax. Whether or not it's better than just using olive oil, I'm not sure?
