I'm not sure but in Korea, there we have "ear cleaners", like a really small metal spoon, you can use to clean your ears. I've always grown up using it so its kind of normal but
it doesn't hurt as long as your gentle
but now that I think about it, not sure about the health implications...

I don't think you should stick things into your ears. It might cause injuries, stuff inside is kind of sensitive.

i use qtips to clean my bong. add heated salt water (or salted isopropyl (works BEST!))
|
This was a bit of a shocker, i always thought the very thing was designed for 'inside the ear canal'-cleaning. O_O
We need study on the possible health implications (if there is any at all; properly used). Im sure the utmost highest precentile of Qtip users actually use them to clean the inside of their ears..

q tips just push it in further. use an ear spoon or whatever it's called. my mom always cleans my ears. feels really good =D

Doctors actually say that using heroin presents great risk to your health. There is a large risk of physical dependency, and decrease in kidney function. It's well known that the sharing needles can lead to bacterial or fungal endocarditis and possibly venous sclerosis. But I don't care, I happily dig away with my needle tip everyday!

I never use q-tips. They feel so gross. I actually had some ear infection when I was a kid so they doctors were consistantly sticking shit into my ear so I guess I've grown to hate it. I never have any wax problems but I do swim a lot so maybe that has something to do with it.

umm, I don't clean my ears, should I?

You use it like an archeologist digging for ancient treasure.
With your self-awareness, hand-feel coordination, gently scrape the walls of your ear canal. Don't do it too hard, you can cause bleeding, which can lead to infection.
If you do it right, dead skin and ear-wax will all culminate inside the "spoon", while you're left with a tingling, warm feeling.
Do it in places where there aren't any people around, so that the danger of getting that thing rammed into your brain is close to 0%.

My ears got infested two times already, the first time I had to go to the hospital and the doctor simply told me to not use Q-tips anymore. But I still use it after a shower because it feels really good. But I think you should only use it on the outside of the ears and clean the inside with water.

q tips really bad for you like drugs. If I replace the word qtip with drugs in this thread it makes for shocking reading /
Try it man, just try it once
It ain't that bad
It just feels sooo good
Thanks but no thanks, crazy junkies ±±

Been using cotton tips (or qtips) to clean my ears (inside and the shell-thing) for as long as I can remember, always got warned that you can damage your hearing if you go to deep. The 'serious health risk' only happens if you are 'seriously stupid' imo.
*grabs box of cotton tips*..
The only thing it says on the front are (after translation by moi)
100% cotton tips Soft ca. 200 pieces Do not stick into ear canal

A general rule is never put anything smaller than your elbow into your ear.

anybody remember the episode of friends where chandler told joey to "stop the qtip when there is resistance" after joey did/said something stupid? lol that was hilarious. that's what qtips remind me of.
