Proper ear hygiene is important to prevent ear infections. Here are some simple tips to keep your ears healthy:
1. Keep ears dry – After showering or swimming, gently dry your ears with a towel. Avoid using cotton swabs deep inside the ear, as they can push wax further in or cause injury.
2. Avoid inserting objects – Do not insert any sharp or small objects into your ears. This includes hairpins, pens, or even fingers.
