As you know, earpicks are a type of queret used to clean earwax in human ears. Commonly used ear pauffs are the ear dogs Gangwon, Gyeongnam, and Chungcheong dialects. It may be made of bamboo, or other metals such as silver or gold, but now made of stainless steel or plastic.

The use of earpicks causes the ear hole to be itchy for some reason, and a person usually tries to scratch with a little finger. However, the finger enters only the inside of the earlobe, and the finger does not enter the inside of the earlobe. Therefore, using a thin rod tool to scratch the inside of the ear. These tools are called earpicks. Earplugs may be heated with fire to disinfect before use.

Types of earpicks include discs (made of metal such as stainless steel), coils (wrap thin wires into coils to roll earwax along the gap), wires, and silicon chips (disks and coils are a compromise between discs). There is).

Precautions in using earpicks If you use too many earpicks, you may be inflamed in the ear canal. Medically, earwax is known to have the effect of protecting the skin by inhibiting the growth of bacteria, so you do not have to dig your ear frequently.

And in Southeast Asia, you can see the work specializing in earpicks. In China and India, for example, they operate on parks or on major roads. However, hygiene may be a problem because tools used by many people may also be used by others. There are also problems, such as charging travelers for high costs, so care must be taken for sanitation groups and locals.
