Microsuction earwax removal is a procedure that uses a small, gentle vacuum to safely remove earwax from the ear canal. Unlike traditional methods such as ear syringing, microsuction does not use water, making it a cleaner and more comfortable process. Your audiologist will use a microscope to closely examine your ear while performing the procedure, ensuring precision and effectiveness. This method is quick, painless, and suitable for people of all ages.

If you're experiencing any of the following, it's time to take action:

• Earache or a sensation of ear blockage

• Progressive muffling of sounds

• Tinnitus (ringing in the ear)

• Itchy ears, odour, or discharge

• Issues with hearing aids, such as whistling or poor function

Home remedies for earwax removal, such as using cotton swabs, ear candles, or inserting other objects into the ear, can be dangerous and ineffective. Here are several reasons why these methods should be avoided:

• Risk of Injury: Inserting objects like cotton swabs or hairpins into your ear can push earwax deeper into the ear canal, potentially causing impaction or damage to the delicate structures of the ear, including the eardrum.

• Infections: Improper earwax removal techniques can introduce bacteria into the ear canal, leading to infections. Ear candles, in particular, have been associated with burns and other injuries.

• Ineffectiveness: Many home remedies do not effectively remove earwax and can exacerbate the problem by compacting the earwax further. This can lead to more serious blockages that require professional intervention.

• Hearing Damage: Pushing earwax further into the ear canal or damaging the ear canal can result in temporary or permanent hearing loss.

• Professional Care: Professional earwax removal methods, such as microsuction, are performed by trained audiologists using specialised equipment. These methods are safe, effective, and designed to avoid the risks associated with home remedies.
