Hydrogen Peroxide Ear Wax Safety

On the safety of hydrogen peroxide to wash earwax
Those who have earwax often accumulate in the ear, which may hinder hearing or cause discomfort. People often seek good methods to clear it, and those who have hydrogen peroxide are common choices. However, whether it is safe to use or not needs to be studied in detail.

Hydrogen peroxide, chemically called hydrogen peroxide. Its nature is active, and it often has the effect of oxidation. When used for earwax, it can use its oxidation power to make earwax soft, decompose, and easy to remove.

However, the use of hydrogen peroxide in the ear canal also poses risks. The skin of the ear canal is delicate. If the concentration of hydrogen peroxide is improper, it will hurt if it is high. The skin is damaged, pain, redness and swelling in light cases, and ulceration and pus in severe cases, causing ear canal inflammation and other diseases. Therefore, the concentration must be carefully reviewed before use. Ordinary people should take three%. This concentration can not only remove scale, but also reduce the risk of skin damage.

When using it, the technique is also important. It must be slowly dripped into the ear canal, and the amount should not be too large to prevent damage to the inner ear caused by sudden pressure. After dripping, it is advisable to lie still for a while, so that the hydrogen peroxide can fully function, and tilt the ear back to let it flow out. If the outflow is not smooth, do not dig forcefully, and seek medical treatment.

Also, not everyone is suitable for hydrogen peroxide to remove earwax. Those who have ear canal injuries and are allergic to them may use it seriously. If the ear canal is damaged, hydrogen peroxide enters, irritating the wound, causing pain and delaying healing; people with allergies may develop rashes, itching, or even breathing difficulties, endangering their lives.

In summary, using hydrogen peroxide to remove earwax, if you can know its nature in detail, observe the concentration and technique, and review your own condition, it is a safe move. If you use it carelessly, it will harm the ear, and it will be too late to regret. Therefore, act with caution to protect the health of the ear.
