India: Ear wax cleaners roam on road even today

Kanpur: It is quite surprising that the presence of traditional ear cleaners has not out and out come to an end. When available doctors are treating ear-related problems, there appears little need for traditional ear cleaners. However, their practice continues.

It is often wondered how do people agree to sit by the traditional ear cleaners? Do they not think that the traditional style of ear wax cleaning can harm them?

Several show natural aversion to this way of cleaning the ears. And the fact is that clearly, a big ratio of the people avoid them. 

Lately, one ear cleaner appeared on a road in Jajmau here. Coming near a man he asked him to allow simply examine one ear without any fee. He strongly said no. So, he moved on the road ahead.

How is this traditional pursuit continuing? Ear wax cleaning by traditional cleaners is never considered reasonable.

They are pursuing customary methods for cleaning wax from the ears. Their presence at present-day advanced medical facilities is quite oddish.

Those people remain verbal enough about the pursuit but its harmful aspects can not be wholly rejected.  

What is the good point in getting the age-old ear wax cleaning practice to carry on?

There will be the sudden impetus to say that any labour with the potential of creating an opportunity for earnings quickly pull in the jokers. That is true, of course. The issue is that this waning profession is all coming across as an odd sight.

The ear cleaning chore was never taken up as the dot com speciality. It remained fairly by the public stance.
