Ear Plugs

What are ear plugs and why are they used?

Ear plugs are small devices inserted in the ear canal to protect the ears from loud noises, water, foreign bodies, dust, or excessive wind. They are commonly used in industries with high noise levels, during swimming or sleeping, or while traveling on airplanes to help reduce discomfort due to changing pressure.

Are there different types of ear plugs?

Yes, there are several ear plugs, including foam ear plugs, silicone ear plugs, custom-molded ear plugs, and flanged ear plugs. Each type has specific benefits and uses. Ensure ear plugs are comfortable and have enough protection from environmental hazards.

How do I correctly use ear plugs?

While the usage can vary slightly by type, foam ear plugs should generally be rolled into a thin cylinder, inserted into the ear, and held in place until they expand to fit the ear canal.

How often should I replace my ear plugs?

The replacement frequency depends on the type of earplugs and how often they're used. Foam plugs are typically disposable and should be replaced after each use, while reusable plugs should be replaced when they become hard, discolored, or lose pliability.
