Recognising Symptoms of Earwax Impaction
Earwax buildup can sneak up on you, but understanding the symptoms can help you seek timely help. Symptoms include:
Decreased hearing
Earache or a feeling of fullness
Tinnitus (ringing in the ear)
Dizziness
Itchiness in the ear canal
If you're experiencing any of these symptoms, relief is just an appointment away with professional ear cleaning.
What Happens During an Ear Cleaning Appointment?
Your ears will be thoroughly inspected to see the exact level of earwax impaction you’re dealing with. We’ll chat with you to see what symptoms you might have and figure out the best way to clean your ears.
At our clinic, your ears will be cleaned with microsuction, which uses a gentle vacuum to remove excess wax efficiently. It's safe, quick, and effective.
Sometimes, we’ll utilise manual extractions for more stubborn wax build-up, but typically the microsuction solves the impaction fast.
