Because there are some people who always like to clean their ears regularly, but such a practice will cause a very big burden on our ears.

    Try not to pluck your ears too often.

    Some people dig up their ears again, which causes inflammation in their ears. Therefore, when we encounter such problems, we can't let our earwax be wiped out. And when we encounter such a problem, it is very likely that bacteria will also invade our own ears and eardrums, which will cause some chronic inflammation.

    There are also some people who will have some ear pain in their own lives, and some of them will even cause their hearing loss in severe cases

    A healthy external ear canal has its own ability, so blindly picking out earwax will cause unnecessary damage to our own ears.

    When the earwax gathers, the earwax can usually move outward on its own, and then when the mouth is opened and closed, the cartilage of the ear canal will also drive the cartilage movement of the ear canal, and part of the earwax will be transmitted to the ear canal or fall out. Therefore, there is no need to clean the ear canal too often.

    Of course, if too much earwax causes some symptoms, such as itchy ears and blockage, you can clean them, pick your ears, or go to the hospital for external ear canal irrigation, but it is not recommended to pick your ears frequently for a long time, or pick your ears in an ear cleaning shop outside, which may destroy the barrier function of the ear canal and easily lead to ear canal inflammation.

    Whether there is earwax in the ear canal needs to be removed depends on the shape of the cerurumen, as follows:

    1. No need to dig: If it is only manifested as flocculent earwax scattered in the ear canal, there is generally no need to deliberately pick the ear, and this type of earwax can often be gradually discharged by the patient's own mouth opening or chewing action.

    2. Need to dig: Some patients may have a relatively narrow external auditory canal, which makes it difficult for the cerumen in the ear canal to be discharged smoothly, and gradually accumulates into a clump to form a cerumen mass embolism in the external auditory canal, which will cause obvious blockage of the external auditory canal, and even further lead to the symptoms of ear stuffiness, ear blockage, hearing loss, and even tinnitus. You can also use phenol glycerin, ear drops, etc. to soften and dilute as appropriate, and then clean up.

    Earwax is an oily secretion produced by the cerumen gland in the human ear canal, which is yellow, also known as earwax, and the scientific name is "cerumen". It protects the eardrum and acts as a barrier. The eardrum is thinner than the cicada's wings, very delicate, and the violent sound waves, straight to the ear canal, can damage the eardrum and even cause rupture.

    Cerumen is bitter and oily, and can expel small insects that fly into the ears and trap invading dust and bacteria.

    Surveys have found that 93 percent of people with wet cerumen ("oily ears") also have fox odor. Babies with cerumen are softened, and mothers are more likely to develop breast cancer. The ancient herbs called earwax "earplugs", which were used by the ancients as medicine, used for crazy ghosts and spirits and alcoholism, foot and hand sores (scratching sores and water), snakes, insects, centipede stings, tetanus, children's night cry and fever, etc.

    Earwax is not something to be had. After natural drying, it accumulates a lot in the ears, and when the person is active, it will fall off on its own and be excreted from the body. So you don't have to dig it up often.

    The Han people also have taboos about earwax (earwax). Thinking that one's earwax (commonly known as "deafness") should not be thrown around, it is not good for one's body to let others step on it. If you swallow your own earwax, you will become dumb or deaf.

    In short, although earwax has left the self, it can still have a magical effect on the self, so avoid taboos.

    What are earwax made of? In terms of physical properties, earwax wax is usually a pale yellow waxy dry flake substance, bitter in taste, insoluble in water, alcohol or ether; According to chemical analysis, earwax contains oil, stearin, fatty acids, proteins, and yellow pigment, as well as water, and a little chalk, potassium, sodium, and other elements.

    Because earwax is rich in oil, it moisturizes the fine hairs on the ear canal**, which block dust particles blown in from the outside. Earwax and fine hairs also protect the ears from insects and other microorganisms. The insects that occasionally break in encounter dense fine hairs and are blocked in their way; The taste of earwax is bitter, and when the insect tastes the bitterness of earwax, it will "know the difficulty and retreat".

    In addition, oil-rich earwax keeps the ear canal at a certain temperature and humidity, especially for the eardrum deep in the ear canal, so that the eardrum is always in optimal motion.

    Fatty acid-rich earwax forms an acid film on the surface of the ear canal**, which puts the external ear canal in an acidic environment and has a mild bactericidal effect. It has been shown that the chemical components in earwax can inhibit the growth and reproduction of several types of bacteria.

    Earwax and fine hairs can not only absorb dust and microorganisms entering the ear canal and keep the ear canal clean, but also make the ear canal cavity slightly narrower, filter and buffer the incoming sound waves, so that the eardrum will not be injured by strong sounds.

    It can be seen that normal earwax is not a waste product, and it still has a certain contribution to the protection of hearing organs.

    Earwax is acidic, and it keeps the external ear canal in an acidic environment, which, along with the ear hair on the wall of the ear canal, defends against external bacteria. Frequent ear plucking and exhausting the earwax is equivalent to removing the external defense line of the ear, allowing bacteria to invade the ear canal and eardrum, which will cause chronic inflammation, symptoms of ear pain, and even hearing loss in severe cases.

    A healthy external ear canal itself has a self-cleaning function. Blindly digging it may be self-defeating and make the earwax unable to come out. "Because if you pluck your ears with a cotton swab, you may not only not be able to remove the earwax, but you will also push them in, so that the earwax cannot be discharged on its own.

    Once the ears accidentally get water when washing hair and bathing, the earwax absorbs water and swells, and the acidic earwax will corrode the depth of the ear canal and cause inflammation. In addition, frequent ear picking can also cause abnormal earwax secretion, which may grow longer and more, and the new earwax will change from the original flake to debris, thus reducing the ability to protect the ear.
