It's not whether you use them it's how. You must use them correctly or your ear canals' geometric and aerodynamic configuration is such that large accumulation is naturally prevented. However, if you go to the doctors for the first time in a long time, he may look in your ear and go HOLY SHIT like he did with me one time. Then he'll proceed to flush out your ear and a giant clump will fall out much to your surprise. Also you'll be quite surprised to notice how much better you'll hear. Build up happens so slowly you don't even notice it, and it's is so far inside the canal you can't tell it's there.
