Cleaning your ears with cotton buds can cause severe damage as your canals can be quite sensitive.A rule among doctors is that you should never put anything that's smaller than your elbow inside them.In certain cases, cotton buds could push wax deeper into the ear canal - so if you're using them, they should only be used around the outside of the ear.
Hygiene is still incredibly important for health, however, and thankfully there are a few ways that you can clean your ears without causing any serious damage.
Here are three methods, reported by the Mirror, that can help people keep their ears clean without having to stick anything inside them and risk damaging canals. 1- Saline solution According to Healthline, a medically accredited website, irrigating your ears with saline solution can effectively clean them.
