ABSTRACT:
An ear protector is formed from a sheet of thin flexible material such as a thermoplastic, for example polyethylene or a coated paper material. The protector is provided with a narrow flap of the sheet material along rear edge, and its top, both of which are curved to approximate the curvature of a human ear. A pressure-sensitive adhesive is provided preferably along the rear edge of the protector to hold the protector in place on the skin behind and adjacent to the ear during use. Preferably the front edge also is provided with a strip of adhesive. The protector has the advantage of being inexpensive and disposable.
