This shocking number came from a 1992 research in which specialists detected bacteria on 20 headsets. This much is apparent. When you wear earbud headphones, you block your ears from natural air, which promotes the growth of germs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dr. Arica Black, Audiologist and owner of The Hearing Doctor in Lubbock, explains that during the summer, there is a significant increase of otitis externa, also known as Swimmer&#8217;s Ear. Wearing earphones traps that heated, damp air, and the bacteria party ensues. Dr. Black recommends washing off your earphones with alcohol wipes and letting them dry regularly. The ideal procedure is to clean them before inserting them into your ears.<\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/topmart-wp-upload.s3.ap-east-1.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Clean-earphone_480x480.jpg?v=1655452932\" alt=\"An effective way to sanitize earphone is washing off with alcohol wipes and letting them dry regularly.
