What’s the best way to fix a blocked ear? Chemist grade softening drops or olive oil can be used at home. Patients with a hole in the ear drum should not use drops. If symptoms persist, make an appointment to have your wax professional removed at Earworx.

Our team of Registered Nurses are trained in ear care. We use special equipment to see inside the ear canal to determine if the ear wax removal method is clinically required.

When you come to an Earworx clinic, you can rest assured you’re in safe hands!

Did you know?

Our ears not only help us hear – they also play a role in maintaining balance and spatial orientation. Within the inner ear, there are structures called the semicircular canals filled with fluid, which detect motion and changes in position. This information is sent to the brain, allowing us to maintain balance and coordinate movements.

Did you know? In ancient Rome, earwax was considered a valuable commodity! Wealthy Romans would pay to have their ears cleaned, and some even used earwax as a beauty treatment for their skin.

Whilst not essential, softening your ear wax prior to your appointment will help ensure your wax removal procedure is as quick and as gentle as possible.

Additionally, softening your ear wax before you attend increases the chances the wax will all be removed at the first visit. Those with holes in the ear drum or grommets should not use drops prior.

Here is a recent removal of a hearing aid wax guard/filter removed from inside of the ear canal from one of our highly trained Registered Nurses.

If you wear hearing aids, we recommend 6 monthly ear cleaning at Earworx.

Did you know that the smallest bone in the human body is in the ear? It's called the stapes, and it's part of the middle ear. Despite its tiny size, this little bone plays a crucial role in transmitting sound vibrations.

Worried your child may have impacted ear wax?

Some of the symptoms to look out for in children include itchy ears, discharge or odour from the ears, dizziness and hearing loss.

If your child is too young to tell you their ears are sore, check for common signs of ear pain like pulling or tugging on the ears, constantly scratching at their ears or not responding when you are talking to them.

At Earworx, we treat children ages 4 and above using our safe and gentle microsuction process. Book an appointment with our Registered Nurses today.
