Earwax Removal
Softening the wax for your appointment
It may take more than one attempt to remove your wax. It’s important that the wax has been softened to make the procedure as comfortable and effective as possible – so to prepare for your appointment, we’d recommend using olive oil to soften it.
A spray known as Earol is ideal for this. Read the instructions leaflet carefully and use for 7-10 days between 2-4 times daily before your appointment. Other sprays or drops are not always suitable and may prevent us from being able to carry out the removal.
Your ears might feel more blocked up after using olive oil and might reduce your hearing – this is because the wax will soak up the oil. If you wear hearing aids, avoid wearing them after you put olive oil in your ears as you could damage your hearing aids (which wouldn’t be covered by your warranty).
If you experience a foul taste after using olive oil, stop using it as this might be a sign that there is a hole in your eardrum. If this happens, get in touch with your GP and let us know.
For some people, olive oil use might cause some mild discomfort or irritation. If you have any doubts or concerns, just give us a call on 0330 113 7773.
Earwax can get stuck in the ear canals, which can cause severe discomfort and a long list of symptoms. Earwax blockage can be very uncomfortable and can quickly become impossible or risky to remove on your own. This can result in symptoms which, should be treated as soon as possible.
Earwax clogging can have the following symptoms:
- Earache
- Dizziness
- Lack of hearing from the affected ear
- Ringing or noises in the ear
- Cough
- Infections
When done by professionals, ear cleaning can deliver incredible results. Earwax removals are much safer than syringing as the earwax gets removed by micro-suction rather than a syringe. This treatment is usually quick and the results are instant.
