Exclusive Independent Ear & Hearing Clinic, Providing Exceptional Care to All Ages.
Earwax is a buildup of wax in the inner ear canal. Its primary function is to protect our eardrum from being infected by factors such as insects, changing weather and much more. Sometimes, earwax blockage may be caused by its excess production, and relying on self-attested methods for earwax removal like using earbuds may only worsen the situation. We at Audiology Planet use the safest and most professional methods for earwax blockage removal, like microsuction.
What Are the Symptoms of an Earwax Blockage?
The accumulation of excess earwax can lead to blockage of the ear canal. In some cases, changes in earwax color may indicate a buildup or hardened wax inside the ear. Symptoms of earwax blockage are as follows:
- Reduced or muffled hearing
- A feeling of fullness or blockage in the ear
- Earache or discomfort
- Ringing in the ears (tinnitus)
- Dizziness or balance issues
- Itchiness or irritation in the ear
- Difficulty understanding speech, especially in noisy environments
- Hearing aid feedback or poor hearing aid performance
- Coughing caused by ear canal stimulation
- A popping or crackling sensation in the ear
Although it is common for us to remove it by ourselves, it is important to visit a clinic, hospital or a professional audiologist nearby to ensure earwax removal is done in the safest way possible.
Why is Earwax Removal Important?
Although earwax has its own way of protecting the ear, its excess buildup can block ventilation, thereby restricting the airflow into the ear. Untreated earwax for a prolonged period of time causes ear wax blockage, which traps germs and moisture that may lead to serious infections such as chronic otitis externa, which causes swelling, discharge and pain in the ear. Timely and safe earwax removal is important to ensure that its buildup doesn’t trigger unnecessary ear wax blockage, discomfort or infections and to keep your ear healthy.
What are the Benefits of Earwax Removal?
Some people may have a naturally narrow or curved ear canal that causes frequent blockage. As people age, earwax gets drier and harder, which makes it difficult to remove. Auditory gadgets entraps moisture and dirt which, when left over a prolonged period of time, cause discomfort and infection. Frequent usage of earbuds can push the earwax further into the ear canal, which causes blockage.
The benefits of safe and professional earwax removal are:
- Clarity in Hearing
- In case of an infected eardrum, a safe and professional removal is the first step before medicating it.
- Relief from discomfort and pain
- Improved auditory well-being
- For patients who require devices to assist in hearing, earwax removal helps them in a better way.
