Protecting and cleaning the ears
There are a number of products available to protect the ears. For example, headphones or earplugs can be used for customers who want to protect their ears from high volume, such as when attending music events. There are also products for swimmers, including drops such as SwimSeal, or ear plugs to protect the ears from water. These may prevent water entering the ear, or absorb the water. A swimming cap may also help.
To keep ears clean, customers can use specially designed products such as ear cleansing washes, which are based on sea water. Customers should be reminded not to use cotton buds, fingernails or other sharp objects to clean the delicate and sensitive ear canal, as there is the risk of damaging the ear or pushing wax further into the ear canal.
