When cleaning the ears with hydrogen peroxide, a 5-milliliter syringe can be used to draw up 3% hydrogen peroxide solution and inject it into the external auditory canal. This produces foam, helping remove purulent secretions from the ear canal. The procedure can be repeated multiple times until no more foam is produced. Additionally, for the treatment of external otitis or otitis media, patients may also take oral antibiotics.
