Today – how to take care of kids ears
Kids have smaller tubes than adults inside their ears and so they can have more ear problems than adults. Here are a few common ones and what you can do to help them
How to take care of kids ears
Let’s take a look at things to consider when it comes to kids and ears!
Ear infections
can be caused by virus and bacteria and often occur with colds – time to see the doctor if this is causing pain
Sound protection
Ear defenders are a great idea if you take your child somewhere noisy like a concert for a festival. It means their sensitive ears won’t get hurt and their whole experience will be more comfortable
Protect ears from the sun
A hat and sunscreen protect ears from the sun and a warm woolly hat protects them from the cold. Do keep your kids ears safely protected!
Avoid cotton buds
Cotton buds are not a good idea as they can push wax or foreign bodies further down into little ears
Get help when needed
Did you know there are even ear wax removal clinics you could take your kids too! Auris Ear Care can either come to your home or you can visit them On Harley street. If you need to beat NHS queues this can be a good way to go. They treat adults as well as g kids and it could be a great solution to your ear wax issues
