Unsure whether you have earwax?
A gradual or sudden reduction in hearing can occur when earwax blocks the ear canal.
New ringing / buzzing or other noises in the ear may occur. If you already suffer with tinnitus your symptoms may worsen.
Earwax impaction may cause discomfort or pain in the ear in the form of earache. A sudden episode of this without fever is common.
In some cases, earwax blockage can affect the inner ear, leading to balance issues.
Earwax blockage can cause irritation and itching in the ear canal. If you suffer with this already, your symptoms will worsen.
The feeling that your ear is plugged or full is a common. You may also feel like your ear is full of water.
Oil Your Ears
Learn how to prepare your ears perfectly before treatment.
You maybe tempted or advised to use other products such as Sodium Bicarbonate or OTEX Express. However, these products break the earwax down too much causing ear canal and ear drum smearing. This is extremely hard to remove. If you stick with olive oil we will remove all your earwax.
Everyone is different when it comes to earwax texture. Some require oiling and others don't. Unless we have stated otherwise, please oil your ears for 3 - 5 days before your appointment. This will help to soften your earwax perfectly.
This might sound trivial but by massaging your ears at the front and back simultaneously helps to move the earwax off your ear canal walls. This helps to reduce risk of discomfort when the earwax is removed.
Depending on your day to day activities you can choose to oil in the morning or before you go to bed. For those that wear hearing aids during the day it is recommended to oil in the evening before bed.
Our three earwax removal clinics are conveniently located around Bristol to provide access to professional and prompt care. Offering weekly appointments on 4 days of the week, we're proud to provide a vast amount of appointments to our clients.
Based in Kingswood, Bedminster and Winterbourne our clinics are highly rated and respected and come with the most up-to-date treatment methods.
Our earwax removal treatment is available to anyone over the age of 14 years old. Any teenagers between 14 -18 years old please see our dedicated page for you here.
Earwax is a naturally occurring product made by our ears. It is designed to help moisturise our ears and protect them from dust, germs, irritation and other foreign objects. For the majority of people we are able to keep our ears clean without any assistance. Earwax travels through our ears naturally until it reaches the outside.
Unfortunately some people have issues with excessive earwax build up or it may get stuck due to the anatomy of their ears. This leads to earwax blockage and the need to have it professionally removed. You can read more about the common signs and symptoms below.
At Bristol Ear Health we use the gold standard and recommended treatment for earwax removal. Microsuction is safe, painfree and effective way to remove earwax. Our team will use a suction device to safely loosen and remove the earwax. After successful treatment we will perform an examination of your ears to check everything looks okay.
Unlike ear syringing, where water is injected into the ear canal, microsuction is quicker and has much less risks involved.
If you're struggling to hear clearly even with your hearing aids in, it is likely due to excessive earwax buildup. Your hearing aids are working as a barrier to stop the natural clearing of the earwax. Common symptoms include hearing aid feedback or whistling, reduce hearing clarity or increased ear canal pressure. If this is you, book an appointment and we will happily assess and remove any stubborn earwax.
