IMPAcTED EAR WAX.
Where 1t Comes From and How It
should BE Treated.

Should BE Treated.
The normal secretion of the orifee
Of the ear is the product of glands
situated In the outer half Of the canal
only. This secretion-the cerumen, or
ear wax-is slowly poured from the
gland ducts as a thin. yellowish liquid
AS 1t quickly loses a large amount Of
its watery elements by evaporation
and becomes admixed with dust 1t
forms a thin layer, waxlike in color
and consistency, which normally COW
ers only the outer portion of the canal,
that in which the glands are located.
This layer of material probably has
its chief function, in common with the
few small hairs in the same location,
in protecting the vibratory membrane
the drum-from the contact of dust.
1t is interesting to observe that the
exit of this layer of wax is accom-
plished by nature chiefly with the aid
Of the motion communicated to the
ear canal by the movement of the jaw
in chewing and talking, a motion read
lily felt by touching the orifice with
the finger tip during these processes.
The constant increase Of the secretion
is therefore provided with a corre-
spending loss, which takes place almost
as imperceptibly as the constant loss
Of the superficial layer Of the skin from
the surface Of the body.
This explanation serves to make
clear why the use of ear spoons, pins
or hairpins is unnecessary. The use
Of such objects is not only superfiu-
GUS, but it is often the cause Of the
very condition which those who use
them would prevent.
Even too vigorous washing with q
twisted cloth or sponge, for example,
may result in pushing the wax back
into the canal until a mass sufficient
to block the entire opening is accumu-
lated.
The first intimation of the presence
of impacted wax is often the sudden
occurrence of n considerable degree of
deafness. This is most likely to hap
pen on a damp day or just after or dur.
ing a bath. A slight amount of mois
ture causes the mass to swell so that
the narrow chink previously existing
between the mass and the canal is
closed. If It is not now removed, the
mass may shrink and the hearing pow
er be temporarily restored, only to be
lost again when conditions arise caus
ing an increase IN the size Of the mass
Firm, gentle Swinging with warn
water from a piston ear syringe is usu
ally regarded as the safest and best
method OF removing the mass, thC
handling of which had better be in
trusted to a physician or trained nurse
