| Abstract: | Three hundred and ten patients were examined by otoscopy. Age, sex, social class and use of cotton buds for aural toilet were recorded. The incidence of visually occlusive wax plugs in the external auditory canals was not significantly different between users and non-users of cotton buds, either in children or in adults. |
