What is Ear Wax (Cerumen)?

Ear wax, also known as cerumen, is a natural substance produced by glands in the ear canal. It plays an essential role in protecting your ears by trapping dirt, dust, and foreign particles, preventing them from reaching deeper into the ear. However, sometimes ear wax can accumulate excessively, leading to discomfort and potential hearing problems.

Common Symptoms of Ear Wax Buildup

  • Reduced hearing or a feeling of fullness in the ear
  • Ringing or buzzing in the ear (tinnitus)
  • Earache or discomfort
  • Dizziness or imbalance
  • Itching or irritation in the ear canal

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, you may need professional ear wax removal to restore comfort and hearing clarity.

Why Choose Professional Ear Wax Removal?

While it might be tempting to try home remedies or use cotton swabs, these can push the wax further into the ear canal, potentially causing more harm than good. Professional ear wax removal is a safe and effective way to clear blockages without damaging the delicate structures of your ear.

ENT specialists use the latest techniques and tools to remove ear wax gently and effectively. We offer:

  • Micro-suction: A gentle and precise technique that uses a small vacuum to remove excess wax.
  • Irrigation: A controlled water-based method to flush out ear wax safely.
  • Manual removal: Using specialized instruments to extract the wax with care.

The Ear Wax Removal Process:

  1. Initial Consultation: A thorough examination of your ear canal using an otoscope to assess the level of wax buildup.
  2. Safe & Painless Removal: Based on the assessment, we will recommend the most appropriate and comfortable removal technique.
  3. Post-Procedure Care: After removal, we will check the health of your ears and provide tips to prevent future buildup.
