My daughter got the cotton part of a q-tip syuck in her ear canal. I cannot see the cotton. It is 11:30 at night. Is it ok to wait until tomorrow to go to an urgent care? Is there anything we can do at home to remove it or is best to wait for a doctor tomorrow?
please dont worry as removal of the cotton is not urgent and you can meet your doctor in the morning tomorrow for removal. please dont try to remove it yourself as you may damage the inner ear. Thanks
