Why do we do it?
We need wax to keep our ears clean !
Wax helps to keep them moisturised, it protects our ears from infections or harmful bacteria and it helps to stop debris from reaching further inside our ear.
A medical professional such as an ENT consultant, a GP or Audiologist may request the wax be removed for a procedure or examination. There are also several conditions that can be caused or aggravated by wax. These may include:
Hearing loss
Wax can block up hearing aids, stopping them from working effectively and causing annoying feedback or whistling
Earache
Ear infections
Itchiness or irritation
A feeling of fullness in the ear
Vertigo, a sense of feeling unbalanced which can lead to dizziness
Having your ears dewaxed may be the best solution for you. Please contact us to arrange a consultation with an expert.
