“AROUND THE BEND” OR CURVED EAR CANALS
One thing to remember is that every person’s ear canals are
shaped differently. In fact, it is not uncommon for the left and right
ear canals to bend in different directions, even in the same person.
If you feel light resistance when you first insert the Eargo device,
and it doesn’t feel like it has gone in all the way, the Eargo device
might just need a little help.
Give it a little nudge left, right, up or down to see if you have a
bend in your ear canal, and if you can, nudge it around the bend
so it goes into place more fully. But PLEASE be gentle and don’t
force it.
It may help to gently pull
the middle of your ear back
while inserting the device
with your other hand.
