Let’s say 40% of people in the US will use a q-tip at some point during the course of a year. That’s 136 million people. 12.5K injuries would be .009%.
So again, rules written for a tiny percentage of people too fucking stupid to know not to jam them in as far as they can. And yea, kids are included in that. A lot of kids are fucking stupid.
None of this means that q-tips are remotely dangerous for anyone with even a small amount of common sense.
Where are you getting these numbers from? At least source your shit. You’re just jumping on the same train as everyone else cause I look like an easy target. Here is a source for q-tip injuries. Thats a lot of children you just blatantly grouped together claiming they have no common sense. At least pull some research for your tangential attack that has nothing to do with proper DDR machine usage.
I stopped using q tips and had so much wax buildup that I could barely hear out of my ear. Was a terrible week or so before I finally got it cleared with a softener and water administered through a flared syringe. I went right back to using q tips as I had for decades before. All it takes is a bit of sweeping at the entrance of my ears for me to avoid that crazy buildup, so it’s well worth it.
I have a gentle ear cleaning tool that is designed to use warm water to clean your inner ear, and then you clean the outer area with a q-tip. They’re great tools, just not for your inner ear. If your ears aren’t prone to infection I highly recommend a water cleaning device for your ears.
You also shouldn’t do that. https://hms.harvard.edu/news/why-you-really-truly-should-not-put-q-tips-your-ears. Thats just proven bad. Unlike my losing battle elsewhere. Which, trust me, it was a big deal if you held on. Everyone can argue it. But all I’m seein’ is a bunch of bar grabbers.
Ah yes, warnings written to protect the .02% of users who are too fucking stupid to know not to shove them in as far as possible.
They’re children, roughly 12.5k a year. You’re picturing adults jamming these in their ears.

Lol, that source is not for q-tips injuries. It’s for furniture or TV’s tipping over. Did you just see the word “tip” and run with it?
