According to reports, there are indeed some poor quality cotton swabs on the market, the raw materials used similar to the black cotton of the dirty cotton after bleaching production, in order to look neat also add white latex, the production site simply can not meet the health standards, with such poor quality raw materials, health can not meet the standards of cotton swabs wipe the ear canal, not only can not play a cleaning role but may lead to aggravation of the disease. So advise patients not to be too frugal in this regard, to buy trusted medical swabs from regular stores.

When choosing to use medical swabs, try to choose swabs with a relatively thin tip to minimize damage to the ear canal. If the swab head is thicker and the ear canal is narrower, you can remove part of the cotton appropriately, but be careful not to expose the hardcore of the swab head to avoid accidental damage when cleaning, and also be careful not to cause foreign bodies of cotton in the external ear canal due to the loose swab head.
