That line is misleading and potentially unsafe. Claims like that are common clickbait and can cause real harm, especially with ears.
Here’s how to handle it responsibly, depending on what you need:
Why the Claim Is a Problem
- There is no proven substance that can restore hearing with “4 drops” in the ear.
- Hearing loss can be caused by many things (earwax buildup, infection, eardrum damage, nerve loss), and some of these can be made worse by putting liquids in the ear.
- Putting drops in the ear without knowing the cause can risk infection, irritation, or eardrum injury.
Safer, Responsible Alternatives (Rewrites)
If you’re writing a headline or content and want it to be ethical and accurate, here are better options:

Important Medical Note
If someone has:
- Sudden hearing loss
- Pain, ringing, dizziness, or discharge
- Hearing loss in one ear only
They should see a medical professional, not try home remedies.
If you want, I can:
- Rewrite this as a myth-vs-fact article
- Turn it into a safe, educational post
- Help you debunk viral health claims clearly and cleanly
Just tell me the goal.
