How to prevent ear infections

1. Avoid using cotton swabs or foreign objects.

Cotton swabs may appear to be useful for cleaning the ears, but they can instead push earwax deeper, causing irritation. If you encounter any discomfort, you should quit using them. Furthermore, avoiding the use of foreign objects such as keys, hairpins, or paper clips to scrape or clean the ears is critical, since they can push the earwax deeper, causing skin irritation or injury.
