They are often used in the construction of plastic model kits, for various applications during the application of decals or painting. Special brands of cotton swabs exist for this purpose, characterised by sturdier cotton heads and varied shapes of those heads. You should avoid using loose cotton wool on open cuts and grazes, whether it’s in the form of a cotton ball or cotton pad. Loose cotton wool can leave behind fibres in the wound that slow the healing process and increase the risk of infection.Medical-type swabs are often used to take microbiological cultures. The swabs are rubbed onto or into the infected area, then wiped across the culture medium, such as an agar plate, where bacteria from the swab may grow. They are also used to take DNA samples, most commonly by scraping cells from the inner cheek in the case of humans. They can be used to apply medicines to a targeted area, to selectively remove substances from a targeted area, or to apply cleaning substances like Betadine. They are also used as an applicator for various cosmetics, ointments, and other substances. Raja, M.; Garg, A.; Yadav, P.; Jha, K.; Handa, S.

Cotton buds are used to precisely clear debris or dirt from a wound or to apply ointments or creams delicately. While common, the use of cotton buds to clear ear wax from the ear canal is not recommended as it may lead to ear wax impaction or cause a perforated eardrum.The most common use for cotton swabs is to clean the ear canal by removing earwax. Cotton swabs are also commonly used for applying and removing makeup, as well as for household uses such as cleaning and arts and crafts. They are also handy for touching up nail polish that gets on the surrounding skin.
