Types of Ear Wax Removal Treatments

At our clinic on Park Square, Leeds, our audiologists perform wax removal using video-otoscopy, ENT microscope and clinical microsuction.

Why Microsuction?

Microsuction is generally regarded as the safest form of clearing ear canals of debris and wax, minimising the risk of infection and damage to the eardrum. In fact, many ENT Consultants and Aural Care Nurses prefer this form of wax removal over traditional syringing. It is a relatively quick and mess-free process with both ears typically taking about 10-15 minutes to clear. Microsuction is even safe to perform on ears where traditional syringing is not allowed, such as where the eardrum is perforated or where there is a mastoid cavity.

Our audiologists have been specifically trained in this procedure and will often perform a quick hearing test afterwards to check hearing levels.

You will also have the option of viewing a before and after image on a computer monitor using a video-otoscope so you can be sure the wax has been removed.

Microsuction ear wax removal in your own home is also available for people who may not be able to travel. An additional £50 call out fee is charged for this service.

There are some occasions where microsuction is not suitable, for example where wax is adhering to the eardrum or is exceptionally soft. In such cases, we can use a gentle water irrigation. Our audiologists have been NHS trained in pulse irrigation for such times where this is the most appropriate method of wax removal.

Ear Wax Removal Near Me

FAQs

Ear wax is simply a natural mix of oil, fats, sweat and dead skin found in the ear canal. It isn’t really a bad thing because it helps to protect your eardrum and ear canal ear against dust, dirt and bacteria. The secretions lubricate the ear canal and prevent the skin from becoming too dry. What’s really interesting though is that contents of ear wax changes from person to person based on diet, age and race. 

Unfortunately, some people just suffer from regularly blocked ears. It can be simply that the over produce ear wax naturally or perhaps they have very narrow or small ear canals. The causes of earwax buildup can be:

  1. Overproduction of ear wax
  2. Narrow ear canals 
  3. Hairy ear canals 
  4. Dry earwax, (not much moisture in the secretion as you get older)
  5. Bony growths in the ear canal can block the progress of ear wax
  6. An awkward ear canal bend
  7. Using cotton buds in your ear
  8. Wearing hearing aids (pushes the wax back in)
  9. Wearing in-ear headphones (same as above)

Sometimes, though not always, you notice a sudden loss of hearing, but it is one symptom that does show up regularly. Here are some of the symptoms of hearing loss:

  • Earache: as wax builds up it can press against the ear canal causing pain
  • Hearing loss: especially after swimming or a shower
  • Itchiness in the ear (can be caused by other things though like dry skin)
  • Dizziness: ear wax blockage can cause dizziness and vertigo
  • Tinnitus: it can give you a sense of buzzing or ringing in the affected ear

Generally, you should do nothing about ear wax unless it is causing you a problem. The ear is self-cleaning and once the process is not interrupted, the wax should just drop out. Sometimes though, ear wax may build up in the ear canal. Normally once the build-up starts, it will just continue unless it is washed or sucked out. Eventually, the ear wax plug will grow to fill the ear canal and it is only then that you will really be aware of it. 

Usually, the first indication you have a problem is when water gets into the ear during swimming or showering. Water causes the ear wax to swell and it blocks the ear canal. If the wax build-up has got to the stage where it is causing deafness, problems with hearing aids, or is uncomfortable, it needs to be removed.

There are several types of ear drops that you can use to loosen and soften ear wax. the drops can include olive oil, almond oil, bicarbonate of soda and hydrogen peroxide. However, they might not be suitable for you. If you have had a perforation of your eardrum in the past, ear drops aren’t a good idea for you and hydrogen peroxide drops can cause severe irritation to the ear canal and eardrum.
