Why not use cotton swab?
Sweeping the ear with a cotton swab (or other objects) will push the earwax deeper into the inside, causing the eardrum to not vibrate effectively and damage the hearing.
Many people still use cotton swabs to clean their ears. But according to Erich Voigt, Associate Professor of the Department of Otolaryngology at the University of New York (USA), this approach can push the earwax deep inside, affecting the eardrum and hearing ability.
Mr. Erich Voigt said using ear buds feels comfortable, but you should stop using them as well as other things (toothpicks, hairpins, car keys .) to remove the ears. These small objects, although they have been wrapped in cotton, can easily cause cuts in the ear canal , which can damage the eardrum and damage the ear canal. This can lead to hearing loss, dizziness, ringing in the ears or other ear problems.
Do not use cotton swabs to clean the ears.
In addition, swabbing the ear with a cotton swab (or other objects) will push the earwax deeper into the inside, causing the eardrum to not vibrate effectively and damage the hearing. According to Dr. Erich Voigt, the earwax is not dirty but is even good for your body. They prevent insect infestation, help lubricate the ear canal, prevent dirt from entering into the ear canal, as well as prevent pathogenic fungi from growing inside the ear.
Human ears have a natural cleansing mechanism through daily bathing or washing. Normal jaw movement when talking, chewing along with the development of skin in the ear canal will help push the earwax from inside to outside.
In case you have hearing problems related to earwax or unusual problems, you should see your doctor for direct advice. These experts will help you clean your ears safely.
