Expert Earwax Removal Clinic
Earwax Removal
Earwax is a natural substance produced by the ear canal. It helps protect the ear by trapping dust, debris and other particles. Normally, earwax gradually moves out of the ear by itself.
However, some people produce more earwax than others, or the wax can become impacted and form a blockage. This may lead to symptoms such as:
- A blocked or full sensation in the ear
- Reduced or muffled hearing
- Ear discomfort
- Ringing or buzzing in the ear (tinnitus)
- Itching
- Difficulty hearing conversations, television or other sounds clearly
At Cristal Pharmacy in Waltham Cross, we provide microsuction earwax removal for suitable patients experiencing problems caused by excess earwax.
What Is Microsuction Earwax Removal?
Microsuction is a technique used to remove excess earwax from the ear canal. During the procedure, a trained healthcare professional examines the ear and uses a specialist suction device to carefully remove the wax. Unlike traditional ear syringing or irrigation, microsuction does not rely on flushing the ear canal with water.
The procedure allows the healthcare professional to closely monitor the ear canal throughout the removal process.
How Does Our Earwax Removal Service Work?
1. Ear Assessment
Your appointment begins with an assessment of your ears. We will discuss your symptoms and relevant medical history before examining the ear canal to check for a build-up of wax and determine whether microsuction is appropriate.
2. Microsuction Earwax Removal
If excess earwax is present and treatment is suitable, our healthcare professional will use microsuction equipment to carefully remove the wax from the ear canal.
A small suction device is used to gently lift and remove the wax while the ear is closely observed.
3. Aftercare Advice
Once the procedure is complete, we can provide appropriate aftercare advice and explain whether any further action is recommended.
If your symptoms do not appear to be caused by earwax, or we identify something that requires further investigation, we may recommend that you seek advice from your GP or another appropriate healthcare professional.
