How to Care for Your Ears?
Ears not only let us hear, but they also play a role in maintaining our balance, which is vital to our ability to function in daily life. Yet, we ignore them. We can't even see our ears, except in a mirror. We take it for granted what they do for us day in and day out—until we notice something wrong, such as when an earache strikes or when we start having to ask people to repeat what they say.
◆Clean your ear with a washcloth—covered finger only.
Never put anything inside your ear canal, including cotton swabs(药签).
◆Leave earwax(耳垢)alone.
Wax is your ear's way of eliminating(消除)anything foreign that gets into the ear canal.If you find you have too much earwax, use a few drops of earwax remover in the canal. After a few minutes, wash the ear with warm water.
◆Avoid noisy places.
Rock concerts and construction sites are just a few places that frequently have noise levels that can damage hearing. Any place where you have to shout to be heard should be avoided.
