Foreign body in ear: It would be wise to See a DR for removal. He will use a tweezer to pull the piece out. Do not try this at home, as any small mistake in movement can puncture your ear drum and cause severe pain and potential infection. In the future, try to not insert your finger in your ear canal to avoid problems.
