It is one of the most common and most overlooked causes of hearing changes!
Earwax is actually a natural and healthy part of how your ears protect themselves. But when it builds up, it can block sound from reaching the eardrum and create that frustrating sense that everything sounds muffled, distant, or like you are listening through a wall.
You might notice voices that are harder to follow than they used to be, a feeling of fullness or pressure in the ear, or sounds that feel slightly off, no matter how much you adjust the volume.
What you should avoid is trying to manage it at home with cotton swabs or other tools. These can push wax further in and sometimes cause more irritation than relief.
We can take a proper look and help you find out if earwax is the reason your hearing feels off right now.
If it is, there is a simple, comfortable solution waiting for you.
