What is ear irrigation/ syringing? 

An electronic ear irrigator is used; it involves a pressurised flow of warm water that removes the build-up of earwax. The irrigator has variable pressure control so that irrigation can be performed at the minimum pressure. A controlled flow of warm water will be squirted into your ear canal to flush out the earwax. Ear irrigation should be a painless procedure.

​

What is Microsuction?

A suction device is used to clean the ear without the use of water. The gentle suction device works in a similar way to a vacuum cleaner and although it can be quite noisy, it is quick and painless.

Preparing your ears for ear wax removal:

Wax removal can often be carried out without preparation if you need it done urgently but I do recommend using oil beforehand, there are many different products you can use to soften ear wax removal, I would recommend earol as I have found that is the best, but any olive oil based spray or drops will do. Try and avoid sodium bicarbonate or any chemical based drops as these can irritate the ear canals. 

Apply for 3-5 days before ear wax removal as follows:

•  Tilt your head to one side and gently pull the outer ear back and upwards.

   

   

• Drop two or three drops of olive oil into the ear canal.  Do not warm the oil, room temperature is fine. 

   

   

• Keep your head tilted for a few minutes to allow the oil to soak in. 

   

   

• Repeat on the other side.
