If a patient has pain when pulling out his ears, the following aspects should be taken into consideration. 1. The patient is likely to use a sharp instrument, such as a metal ear digging spoon, which is particularly likely to cause damage to the mucous membrane of the ear canal, leading to congestion and inflammation of the mucous membrane, so the patient will experience significant pain in his ears. 2. The cotton swab used by the patient may be too deep, sometimes touching the eardrum and causing significant pain. 3. Because patients have the habit of repeatedly pulling out their ears, it is especially easy to cause chronic inflammation to form inside the ears, which can cause pain in the ears. In life, patients must pay attention to protecting their ears, especially the cleaning of the ear canal and cleaning the ear wax regularly.
