Cockroach survives hours in man's ear
The cockroach interrupted the sleep of a resident of the suburbs, climbing into his ear
As reported “MK” in the Ministry of health of the Moscow region, the citizen entered the Vidnovsky clinical hospital with complaints of noise in the left ear after waking up. During the examination, doctors found that the source of the noise was a live cockroach. Fortunately, the poor man did not try to get it by himself. Doctors recommend not doing this to avoid complications. Such attempts can push the object deeper, damage the ear canal or eardrum, cause bleeding and infection.
As noted by otorhinolaryngologist Magomed Hasanov, the insect was removed using microsurgical ear forceps. The extraction went without complications, the eardrum and ear canal were not damaged, the cockroach also survived.
Currently, the condition of the man is assessed as stable. He has already returned home and now wakes up without the help of an insect in his ear.
