Are q-tips safe?


Question:


Answers:
for the most part yes, just don't insert them to far into anything as the cotton can come off as little fuzz or you could poke a hole in your eardrum etc.

If you are using them for a small child or are concerned about going to far into your ear, Johnson and Johnson makes a "swab" for babies and small children that is a little different in shape and can only go so far in your ear.. I use it for my son

Other Answers:
yes, but you are not supposed to stick them IN your ear. or they will fall off in your ear canal and you will need to get them removed at the ER.
i dont think theyd let you have like 50000 in a packet and are still selling them to hundreds of people if they werent
yeah.. ur not supposed to put anything in ur ear smaller then ur elbow.. weird right?..
Nothing feels so great as a qtip in the ear canal.dont care if Im not supposed to .Im addicted.
Yes, you wouldn't be able to fit them in your ear far enough to do any damage.
Absolutely not. You should never stick anything in your ear larger than your elbow (any doctor/nurse will tell you this). Try cleaning your ears with a damp cloth or have a professional cleaning.
If you use them properly
well, if you don't jam them in your ear too far or decide to cram one up your nose. also if you decide to eat them.might not be the best idea in the world. really.
