Shocking truth about cleaning your ear

By - - [ Health ]

I used to clean my ears like kilode! until a friend told me it’s not good to do so and I was like….you say what???? I started wondering, that means her ears are blocked or something.

Later on, i learned in school that ear wax is not dirt.
Again i said…eehh!!!!?

Yea, looks brown and yucky but it also has antibacterial and antifungal properties so is made to protects your ear.

I know we are all used to cleaning with cotton buds. Some even use chicken feathers and biro cover to clean. All are completely unhealthy and only pushes it back deep into your eardrum. It can also cause pain. I actually developed pain in one ears as a result of constant cleaning and dipping of cotton bud.

There doctors whose area of speciality is the ear. Yes, I have also consulted one because my ears itched like no man’s business and it got cleaned and flushed. So visit a doctor to properly remove your earwax or have an itchy ear.

I find out that when my ear itches and I use cotton bud, it comes out completely clean, so the itching is sometimes caused by excessive cleaning.

The job of the wax is to trap diets and unwanted substances that comes into the ears.

If you want to clean your ears, use the cotton bud to clean the outer part of your ear and hole slightly, stop pushing it inside.

It is unhealthy!
