<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To safely remove earwax without damaging an external auditory canal by obliquely forming the opening part of a cylindrical body in a conical shape or a cylindrical shape, inserting the opening part side of the cylindrical body to an ear hole and removing the earwax. SOLUTION: The cylindrical body 1 in the conical shape is made of paper or synthetic resin and is formed, for instance, by punching a sheet-like body in an expansion shape, winding it to a core bar and bonding or ultrasonic- welding a tab part. The opening part 2 opened in a trumpet shape of the cylindrical body is formed obliquely in an elliptic shape and is in a size suitable for being inserted to the external auditory canal. When the oblique opening part 2 is quietly inserted to the external auditory miatus first and part in front of the tapered vertex point 3 of the cylindrical body 1 is rotated with a finger, the earwax is scratched off from the external auditory canal by the most projected peripheral edge part of the opening part 2 and the earwax is accumulated inside the cylindrical body 1 from the opening part 2. In such a manner, the earwax is safely removed without damaging the external auditory canal.</p> |
