Are ear candles safe to use?

By MindStick

No, ear candles are not safe to use, despite their claims to remove wax and heal diseases, offer considerable risks.

The use of heated wax and an open flame can cause serious burns to the face, ear canal, or eardrum.

Suction can damage the eardrum by forcing wax deeper, potentially opening it and worsening existing obstructions, demanding medical attention.

Ear candles can bring bacteria into the ear, potentially causing infection, and leaving them unattended can create a fire problem.

The FDA strongly recommends against using these items because they can cause serious harm and are ineffective in removing earwax.
