Ear picking might lead to cancer

?In our daily life, many people get used to picking up an earpick to pick the ears whenever they get free and have nothing particular to do. ?Some even have formed the habit of picking the ears with their hairpins or fingernails because they find it comfortable to do that way. But what they don't know is that it can be actually very dangerous. If we do it in an improper way, there might bury potential sources of diseases in our body. Picking the ears in the wrong way is very likely to damage the external auditory meatus skin and bring into the bacteria to the ear canal and cause disease.

The external auditory meatus skin is very weak and sensitive. It is very close to perichondrium with little subcutaneous tissue, so the blood circulation is poor in it. Uneven use of strength in ear picking will cause injury to the external auditory meatus, infection, inflammation of the external auditory canal and fester. Some people may even hurt the tympanic membrane or ear bone and suffer from tympanic membrane perforation when they have used too much strength in picking ears. Lightly it will affect the hearing and seriously it may lead to deafness. In addition, frequent ear picking can stimulate the ear canal skin, inducing external auditory meatus papilloma. Although papilloma belongs to benign tumor, which can be cut off through surgery, but it is easy to relapse after resection. Multiple recurrences might even lead to a malignant tumor.

Although "earwax" does not sound good, it actually has certain protective effects towards the ears. Because secretion of the glands of the external auditory meatus has weak acid, tastes bitter, and has a certain volatile features. The smell doesn't attract the insects and it is not suitable for bacterial growth, so the"earwax" can prevent insects from flying in, protect the ear canal skin.
