But I can definitely recommend these—they're small, and they don't give me those annoying headaches. They come in different sizes, so just make sure you grab the ones that actually fit you. Personally, I wear mine for seven nights before swapping them out. And yeah, I clean my ears, obviously.

Thanks! I actually gave those a try and they worked well for me.
I don't personally struggle with wax buildup either, but I was reading some things online suggesting that using earplugs might actually push existing wax deeper, potentially causing a blockage.
But I suppose if you stay on top of your ear hygiene, everything should be fine.

I’m thinking about starting to use those disposable foam earplugs every single night.

So, I have a question for anyone who uses them on a daily basis.
Has anyone ever experienced an buildup of earwax causing a blockage, or perhaps dealt with an ear infection because of regular plug use?
