What Could Be The White Mass Inside The Ear?

my son is 4 years old. I see something in white colour inside his ears. But it is not ear bud but looks like that. Our family doctor told that is some foreign body but not a fungus. Asked me to meet a ENT specialist. I have to go. But i m in a confused state. He never use any ear bud or he never puts anything inside his ear. Please advise what it could be.

Hello,

This is probably a foreign body as you said, it does not matter how it got there, but you need to an ENT doc as soon as possible to get it out.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
