"Picking out one's ears", also known as "little comfort", is an ancient royal aristocratic health care method. Through the steps of pulling out ears, washing ears and protecting ears, various ear symptoms can be effectively prevented and treated.
The earliest ear picking can be traced back to the Shang Dynasty 3000 years ago. In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, ear-plucking once became a necessary item in the royal court. The skilled ear-digging master served the princes all the year round, and made a substantial breakthrough in technical extension and cultural rise. With the development of society, ear-digging skills have gradually flowed into the streets and lanes from the deep house compound and entered the folk.
As the old saying goes, in the corner of a tea shop, two people are sitting and standing. Stay like a dot. The nosy man asked, "What's the matter?" The answer is, "dig your ears." . Ear-picking witnesses are comfortable in body and mind, bright and wise, and everything is like an ethereal spirit. It is really "a thousand years of reward, and the gods will rest when they fly." Nowadays, ear digging can be seen everywhere in Sichuan and Chongqing, and it has become a part of ordinary people's daily life.
Matters needing attention in daily ear protection
1, don't swab your ears frequently.
If you feel hearing problems, you should seek medical advice promptly. The American Academy of Otolaryngology points out that pulling out the ear with a cotton swab will make more and more earwax in the ear, which is also called earwax embolism in medicine.
2, wearing headphones, remember that the time is too long and the sound is too loud.
When the ear is exposed to a high volume environment above 100 dB for more than 1 hour, it may cause irreversible permanent hearing damage. Studies have proved that continuous use of headphones for 6 hours will cause hearing damage. This is because the earphone is stuck in the ear and attached to the eardrum. Under the long-term music vibration, long-term sound stimulation will damage the eardrum and accelerate the aging of auditory organs such as the eardrum.
3. Use ototoxic drugs with caution.
Antibiotics such as streptomycin, kanamycin and gentamicin have obvious toxic effects on the auditory nerve of the ear, so they must be used with caution under the guidance of a doctor.
4, ear discomfort, timely treatment.
If you find ear discomfort for a long time, you should suspect chronic suppurative otitis media or recurrent otitis media, go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time, control the progress of the disease, and follow the doctor's advice when necessary to carry out repair surgery.
