The doctor said...never clean your ears w/ Q-tips  (which we do it seems twice a day ever since we were little)...because it just pushed the wax/dirt further into your ear canal and can cause more problems.
She said that when you shower, just use your wash cloth to clean your ears and that is all that you need!
I never knew!!! |
o wow i didnt know what either! I wash mine in the shower, actually when i wash my hair i use shampoo and they fall on my ears and clean them anyway. But i do have an obsession with sticking things in my ears to scratch them, like i will use pen caps, the pointy part and bend them, hair pins, q tips, etc. sometimes they hurt cause i do it too much but i cant help it, it feels so good to scratch them! lol
