Use of cotton swabs

Cotton swabs, also known as wiping sticks. A cotton swab is a small wooden stick or plastic stick slightly larger than a matchstick, and it is covered with a little sterile cotton. People generally like to pick their ears with cotton swabs, but this is wrong. Because earwax usually appears in the ear canal outside the ear, if we clean it with a cotton swab, it is easy to push some earwax into the deep part of the ear during the cleaning process, causing blockage in the deep part of the ear, leading to the decline of our hearing, and even worse, damaging the eardrum. Moreover, cotton swabs have many other uses besides picking ears.
