Recognising Symptoms Requiring Earwax Management 🦻
At Country Hearing Care, we emphasise that many symptoms, while often attributed to earwax, may indicate other underlying issues. A professional visual inspection is the only definitive way to determine your earwax status.
While earwax is self-cleaning, accumulation can occur, leading to blockages. It is crucial to never attempt self-removal. We strongly advise against the use of cotton buds or ear candles due to the risk of injury and compacting the wax.
However, certain signs may indicate that a professional wax assessment is necessary:
-> Sensation of Blocked Ear(s)
-> Dizziness or Imbalance
-> Tinnitus (Ringing or Buzzing in the Ear)
-> Regular Hearing Aid Blockage
-> Earache
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, a professional evaluation by our specialists is recommended to ensure appropriate care.
