If a fly gets into the ear, a liquid such as oil or ethanol can be dropped into the external ear canal, or the fly can be discharged. If the fly is not discharged with the liquid, active medical treatment is required.
When a fly gets into the ear, the live fly can crawl and cause severe earache and noise, which can make the patient panic and even damage the tympanic membrane. Therefore, when a fly burrows into the ear, patients need not panic. Oil, ethanol and other liquids can be chosen to drop into the ear canal, through the buoyancy effect or the fly can be discharged from the external ear canal with the liquid overflow.
If the fly is not discharged, it is necessary to actively seek medical treatment. Specialized doctors can clarify the condition of the external ear canal with professional equipment and instruments, and standardize the removal of foreign bodies.
When flies get into the ear, try to avoid digging and swatting the outer ear to minimize the disturbance of the fly and reduce unnecessary damage to the inner ear structures.
