Foreign Object in the Ear



If an object becomes lodged in the ear:
Don't try to remove the foreign object by probing with a cotton swab or other tool. If the
object is clearly visible and flexible, and it can be easily grasped with tweezers, gently
remove it.
If the object is not visible or is embedded in the ear, tilt the head to the affected side and
shake it gently toward the ground to dislodge the object.
Call for emergency medical assistance or go to your local 6emergency room if you could
not remove the object and ;the person experiences pain in the ear or reduced hearing
