Unsure whether you have ear wax?
A gradual or sudden reduction in hearing can occur when ear wax 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.
Ear wax 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, ear wax 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.
Oiling Process
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.

Ear wax is a natural substance produced by the ear to moisturise and protect against dust, germs, and irritation. For most people, it clears itself naturally. However, sometimes ear wax builds up or becomes stuck due to the shape of the ear canal, leading to blocked ears, discomfort, or temporary hearing loss. In these cases, professional ear wax removal is recommended.
Our clinics use microsuction, the gold-standard method for ear cleaning. This quick, safe, and effective procedure uses a gentle suction device under a specialist microscope to remove earwax with precision.
Unlike traditional ear syringing, microsuction ear wax removal does not introduce water into the ear, making it especially suitable for patients with sensitive ears, a history of ear infections, or perforated eardrums. Benefits include:
If you wear hearing aids and are struggling with muffled sound, whistling feedback, or reduced clarity, it may be due to a build-up of ear wax. Hearing aids can act as a barrier, preventing natural wax clearance. Our specialist ear wax removal service ensures your ears are clear so your hearing aids can work at their best.
Book your ear wax removal appointment in Bristol today and enjoy clear, comfortable hearing again.
