Question

Removal of wax layer too often will raise incidence of ear infection. Give reasons for it.

Answer 1

Wax layer helps to keep the ear canal lubricated and prevent the dust and other particles from entering into the ear canal. If the layer is too often removed, the dust and other particles may enter into ear canal. Thus it may cause ear infections.

Answer 2

1) Wax Layer helps the outer ear in preventing it from outer dust and harmful particles.

2) When we remove it too often, the amount of wax layer decreases.

3) Hence, it may not stop the outer particles to get in.

4) Finally, leading to ear infections.
