From Wikipedia: Ear candling, also called ear coning or thermal-auricular therapy, is an alternative medicine practice claimed to improve general health and well-being by lighting one end of a hollow candle and placing the other end in the ear canal. According to medical researchers, it is both dangerous and ineffective.[2] Claims that the practice removes earwax are not supported by any evidence.

FDA has found no valid scientific evidence to support the safety or effectiveness of these devices for any medical claims or benefits. FDA has received reports of burns, perforated eardrums and blockage of the ear canal which required outpatient surgery from the use of ear candles.
I'm surprised people still aren't using leeches to cure the common cold honestly...

Actually is does use physics properties. Fire requires air, and when a cylinder is lit, fire draw air from all around. The air drawn from the ear creates a slight suction that removes wax over time.

Nope. The wax is always "earwax color" no matter what color the ear candle is.
Plus you can feel the difference in your ears after. You've obviously never tried it.

Try this simple experiment:
Take two "ear" candles. Light one in someone's ear and the other one on a table by itself. Compare the two when they're done burning.
Spoiler: They're identical! Because they don't actually do anything to the person's ear!
