ear canal

ear canal
Danh từ
Số nhiều: ear canals

This term is a precise anatomical designation used in both medical and general contexts. It describes the physical conduit of the outer ear, distinguishing the passage itself from the external ear flap (pinna) or the inner ear structures.

In clinical settings, it is frequently paired with adjectives describing its state, such as "obstructed," "inflamed," or "narrow." Because it refers to a specific biological structure, it is used literally and lacks metaphorical extensions.
