cotton wool stuck in ear?!


Question: Cotton wool stuck in ear?
i was digging my ear with cotton bud this morning, when i draw out i realised the bud was missing. I tried to dig it out with a ear digger but not even a single trace of the bud. All i get is lots of ear dirt. It could have been that the bud has already fallen out on its own, or that it could have pass by my ears. The thing is i have buds stuck in my ear many times and well if something is stuck u can feel it. This time I felt nothing, , I ask my mum to use maginflying glass and touchlight to see, she say no sign of the bud. When i put my digger in, also got no feeling of the bud, usually if the bud is in, you will feel something soft and hairly inside. So far got some pain perhaps due to the digging but otherthan that no other effects, my nose is a bit itchy too.

so how can i know if bud is stuck in my ear, or if the cotton but is fell off?
could the bud pass through my ear and enter the brain or nose?

Let your doctor look in your ear.
You should never poke things in your ear, it can take care of itself.
Pain is most likely from you scratching about.

There is no likelihood of the stuff entering your brain or nose.
