Be careful if you keep the ears wet often, as doing so can lead to fungal ear infections (otomycosis). This problem is mostly seen in swimmers. In this disease, infection occurs in the outer part of the ear canal. The cause of infection is bacteria called Aspergillus and Candida, which start spreading rapidly due to moisture.

If you like listening to loud music, then change this habit soon. Because listening to very loud music and excessive use of audio devices affects the ear's ability to function, keep this in mind.
