5. Foreign Object

Occasionally, a foreign object may become lodged in a person’s ear. Children often attempt to place small objects into their ears. This issue may also occur in adults who use improper tools to clean. Discomfort, pain, and bleeding are the most common symptoms of an object in an ear.
