Should you use Q-Tips to clean your ears?

DID YOU KNOW that Q-Tips were created in 1923 to help families care for babies? Somewhere along the line, we started sticking these things into our ears!

Q-Tips are so easy and convenient to use, but they may be one of the scariest things in your bathroom.

When you put a Q-tip in your ear, you are likely to push ear wax further into your ear canal which can cause impaction, more discomfort, or even cause a rupture in your ear drum! Let’s leave the ear cleaning to the professionals.👂

If you need to have your ears cleaned, skip the q-tips! Call us or visit our website. We’re located in East Providence and Warwick, Rhode Island.
