Earwax Removal

Earwax will usually take care of itself. It’s your body’s way to clean your ear canal and push out any dirt. But sometimes earwax becomes impacted against the eardrum or completely blocks the ear canal. Earwax can even cause tinnitus, a ringing in your ears. That’s why sometimes addressing hearing loss is as simple as earwax removal. 

You might be tempted to reach for a cotton swab to remove earwax, but it’s best to avoid this. Instead of effectively removing wax, cotton swabs can often push it further into the ear canal, potentially causing impaction. If earwax isn’t clearing on its own, over-the-counter ear drops can help. These drops work to soften the earwax, allowing it to come out more naturally when you shower or bathe.
