26 Cockroaches Shockingly Found Living In Man’s Ear


Most people would feel something wiggling around in their ear at one point or another. Personally, even the slightest itch or tingle in our ear causes us to scratch or rub at it to remove whatever is blocking the ear canal. However, some people may not be as sensitive.

Unfortunately, one 19-year-old, known simply as Mr. Li, was recently admitted to Chang’an Xiaobian Hospital within Dongguan after his ear started to receive an extreme itch and he felt an excruciating pain within it. The doctors at said hospital later discovered that a cock roach had created a little nest within his ear canal.

We saw an insect-shaped object blocking his ear canal completely,” one doctor claimed. However, things got worse for the young man. The cockroach living within his ear ended up spawning 25 baby cockroaches, too.

The mother cockroach is thought to have scampered into his ear several weeks ago while the man was asleep, though doctors cannot be too sure. Thankfully, the hospital managed to remove the infestation just in time. His ear could have been completely destroyed if they remained inside any longer.
