A foreign body that enters the ear may have been expelled from the body, or it may have entered the outer ear canal, the middle ear, etc. It needs to be examined and judged by a medical professional.
1. When a foreign body enters the ear, such as a small bug or foreign object, it may be discharged with chewing, activity and vibration of the external ear canal.
2. The external auditory canal is slightly “S” shaped curve, such as some beans, insects, cotton balls and other foreign objects, easy to fall into the depth of the external auditory canal, or even in front of the eardrum, stuck in the narrower place, not easy to discharge themselves.
3. If there is a large perforation of the tympanic membrane or purulent otitis media, smaller particles, sand and soil and other foreign objects, along with the effect of gravity through the broken eardrum, directly into the drum chamber, it is difficult to automatically discharge.
Therefore, when there is a foreign body in the ear, you need to go to a regular hospital in time, under the guidance of a professional doctor for standardized treatment.
