Microsuction ear wax removal in Brixton
Microsuction ear wax removal is a safe and effective method for removing excessive or impacted earwax. During the procedure, our trained and qualified professional, typically an audiologist or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) doctor, uses a gentle suction device combined with specialized equipment and techniques to carefully and precisely remove earwax from the ear canal. This method is preferred over other techniques like ear irrigation or ear syringing because it is less invasive and less likely to cause damage to the delicate structures of the ear. Microsuction is quick, painless, and provides relief from symptoms associated with earwax buildup. It is a highly recommended solution for anyone experiencing hearing difficulties or discomfort due to excessive earwax accumulation.
What is Ear wax?
Earwax, or cerumen, is a waxy substance produced by glands in the ear canal. It acts as a natural barrier, trapping dust and debris and protecting the delicate structures of the inner ear. The ear naturally moves the wax towards the opening of the ear where it eventually dries up and falls out. However, in some cases, excess earwax can build up and cause blockage, leading to hearing difficulties, discomfort, ringing in the ears, and a feeling of fullness in the ear. It’s important to address excessive earwax buildup to avoid any potential hearing problems. This can be done through professional removal methods like microsuction.
Symptoms of excess wax buildup
Excessive earwax buildup can lead to various symptoms, including impaired hearing, discomfort, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), and a feeling of fullness in the ear. In severe cases, earwax accumulation can even cause pain and infection. These symptoms can be caused by a blockage in the ear canal, which prevents sound from properly reaching the eardrum. If left untreated, excessive earwax buildup can lead to more serious hearing problems, so it’s important to address it promptly. Common signs that you may have a buildup of earwax include muffled hearing, ear pain, itching, ringing in the ears, and discharge from the ear.
Ear candling
Ear candling, also known as conching, is a method of earwax removal that involves lighting one end of a hollow candle and inserting the other end into the ear. The idea behind this technique is that the heat from the candle will create a vacuum that will pull the earwax out. However, this method is not recommended as it can be dangerous and ineffective. There is no scientific evidence to support the claims made about ear candling and it can even cause damage to the ear canal or eardrum.
The heat from the candle can also cause burns to the face and hair.
Instead of trying ear candling, it’s best to book an appointment for microsuction ear wax removal.
Ear syringing in Brixton
Ear syringing is a method of earwax removal that involves flushing water into the ear canal to loosen and remove the earwax. This method is not recommended as it can be dangerous and ineffective. Flushing water into the ear canal can cause damage to the delicate structures of the ear and increase the risk of infection. Additionally, ear syringing can push the earwax further into the ear canal, making the blockage even worse.
If you’re experiencing symptoms of earwax buildup, it’s best to book an appointment for microsuction ear wax removal.
