Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

How to take out the dirt from the ears and how to keep it clean further? Please help.

Thanks.

Answered by Dr. Sameer Kumar

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I advise you not to clean it with sharp objects or hairpins as you might accidentally damage your ear drum. Go and see an ENT specialist for syringing procedure and removal of wax.

I hope this information will help you.

Thanks.
