ABSTRACT:
A Safe Ear Wax Remover is composed of three parts; a wax extractor (26), a safety stopper (10), and an adjuster (30) whereby the three parts combine together making a functional unit. The unit is then placed into the ear canal with stopper resting outside. Once the unit is inserted into the canal, the handle (20) is rotated, wax is caught in the extractor and then the unit is removed from the canal. Wax is thereby safely extracted from the ear canal. Repetitious insertion done, moving the adjuster and stopper to allow increased depth of insertion of extractor, until all wax is extracted. Wax is thereby extracted without visualization of ear drums and thereby can be accomplished by oneself and/or by lay persons.
