'EAR WAX GONE' Treatment.
Many different preparations for earwax removal (Cerumen) have been tried, some of which go back to ancient Egyptian times. Manual syringing has been historically the most common method of earwax removal, but it can prove to be prolonged, often painful, and at times futile. Too forceful, and ear drum perforations can often results, not forceful enough and the cerumen is not removed. Quite a gamble, relying entirely on a little luck and the skill of the would be earwax remover to separate the impacted ear wax from the eardrum - often a very painful and distressing process. Well that gamble is over - a thing of the past. The 'Ear Wax Gone' treatment uses a purely natural occurring oil to soften, then emulsify (dissolve) the wax and carry it out of the ear mixed with the oil. Quickly and completely painlessly. 'Ear Wax Gone' treatment requires no pre-dozing, no unique skills from the ear wax remover, no period of softening the wax, using ear drops, no days of deafness and distress through impairment of hearing, causes absolutely no distress or dizziness, and the whole operation is over in a lot less than a minute. Why was this not done before - well apparently it was used by the Greeks for centuries and then forgotten about. Incidentally the oil used is related to olive oil, but was valued more for its medicinal than gastric qualities, by the ancients.
The current method of earwax removal in use in clinics throughout the world, is syringing the ear using luke warm water. Some times applied by a hand driven syringe and sometimes applied by a pulsating electrically driven pump. Neither method is really satisfactory. Both methods cause dizziness and pain, can lead to permanent ear damage, and more often than not, fail to remove the wax. But there again as I write this I realize that most of the people who will read this already know these facts and that is why they are reading here, hoping to find a simple pain free method of regaining their full hearing. Well look no further - It is right here.

A new study, led by researchers at The Montreal Children’s Hospital, has revealed that certain over-the-counter ear drops, containing the active ingredient triethanolamine can cause severe inflammation and damage to the ear-drum and inner ear. Click here for full report. Using Swab Sticks. Deeper swabbing is potentially risky for three reasons. First, if you have a lot of ear wax, placing the swab into the canal will tend to turn it into impacted ear wax, which can turn a partial blockage into a complete blockage. Second, you may damage the ear drum if the swab is inserted too deeply. Finally, if you scratch or abrade the ear canal skin, you may cause a painful infection of the canal ("swimmer's ear," known medically as otitis externa.) Water Jet Syringing. Irrigation or "syringing" is a standard method of ear wax removal and approximately 150,000 ears are irrigated each week in the USA. It has many disadvantages, for example, in the rare instances when there is a perforation, irrigation may force water and wax into the middle ear, causing a nidus for infection. Often ineffective with impacted ear wax. Ear Vacuum Treatment. Sixteen participants with earwax were selected, and were allowed to use a proprietary vacuum ear wax removal machine. On examination after this treatment, visibility of the ear drum was unchanged and no participant felt that there was an improvement in their hearing.
EAR CARE. -
Keep your ears dry. Dry your ears thoroughly after exposure to moisture from swimming or bathing. Dry only your outer ear slowly and gently with a soft towel or cloth. Never insert your finger or any other object into your ear. -
Swim wisely. Avoid swimming in polluted water. -
Use earplugs. Some earplugs are designed specifically to keep water out of your ears when swimming. -
Avoid putting foreign objects in your ear. Never attempt to dig out excess or impacted ear wax with items such as a cotton swab, paper clip or hairpin. Using these items can pack material deeper into your ear canal and irritate the thin skin inside your ear. -
Protect your ears. Avoid substances that may irritate your ear, such as hair sprays and hair dyes. Or put cotton balls in your ears when applying these products. -
Use caution after ear infection or surgery. If you already have an ear infection or have recently had ear surgery, talk to your doctor before you swim.
FROM 'PATIENT CARE'. Their own comments and spelling. I have just been diagnosed as having my right ear blocked with impacted ear wax. I haven't had any loss of hearing but am suffering a lot of pain in my ear and headaches and also it is extremely painful in my ear when I swallow. I have been using olive oil ear drops as recommended by my gp and after five days I am still suffering. Has anyone else experienced pain with this condition? i've had problems with hard ear wax since i was a teenager - and found sodium bicarbonate by far the most effective ear wax remover. Olive oil and other commercial ear drop preparations are ineeffective. Both my ears were partially blocked with wax, the right ear was worst effected. I went to have them syringed, but the nurse told me I had to use olive as ear drops for at least 14 days before she could syringe them due to previous litigation for damaged ear drums.
Nine days later the right ear blocked completely, and became sore and uncomfortable. Being on holiday I found a practice nurse who syringed both ears, the left cleared completely, but the right one remained blocked. That night I hardly slept due to the increased pain in my ear. by the following afternoon I was in more pain, so I went to an A&E department, and was referred to the ENT ward. A doctor attempted to remove the wax with suction, but again it wouldn't shift. She told me to take painkillers and bicaronate of soda eardrops for another five days and to come back for a second attempt at sucking the wax out. I really hope it works this time - it is painful and suprisingly debilitating being totally deaf in one ear. I'm due to fly in a week - I hope I will be able to. My right ear has been blocked for a month now. The GP has tried to syringe it twice and has now referred me to hospital. I got a letter to choose and book an appointment. Basically I have to wait 7-8 weeks to get an appointment in 3 months time. No hearing in one ear for 1/3 year because of our substandard health service. I had a totally blocked left ear which started when I had to take a half hour walk looking for an address in -17 deg C in downtown Chicago, the right ear was not effected as I was wearing a mobile earphone on it. The wax inside had become hard and within the next week clogged the canal fully. I used Dewax as an ear wax remover for a day (3 drops thrice, left ear up for about 3 to 4 min after putting the drops) then went to the ENT Doctor, he cleaned up the wax first by scooping out some wax then he flushed it out by saline water, I was first feeling giddy for 5 min then slowly got my balance back, the next day I'm perfectly fine. I have used oil for 14 days as an ear wax remover, bur still needed to go for syringing, which didn't work. Given that this happens to me every few years, and I sort of know the cycle now, I believe there is reluctance on the part of the NHS to want to carry out syringing. My nurse gave a very half hearted attempt and told me to try oil as an ear wax remover, for another two weeks and to change my diet. She had no idea what sort of diet I have and in fact, it is excellent, and in line with her recommendation. Then my 6 minutes were up and I got shown the door.
I am in pain, I cannot hear, e.g. cannot use the phone and feel dizzy.
Thanks for all your help NHS - when I really need you, every couple of years or so, I get a lecture on my diet.
I am due to fly next week, to Holland, and am arranging to see a doctor there who specialises as an ear wax remover.
EAR WAX DEFINED.
- Earwax is a combination of sheets of desquamated keratin squames (the dead flattened cells on the outer layers of the skin), cerumen (a wax-like substance produced by ceruminous glands, which are modified sweat glands), sebum (from sebaceous glands), and various foreign substances (e.g. cosmetics and dirt) [Hawke, 2002; Wilson and Lopez, 2002; Burton and Doree, 2003.
- Ear wax has several functions. It aids removal of keratin from the ear canal (earwax naturally migrates out of the ear, aided by the movement of the jaw). It cleans, lubricates, and protects the lining of the ear canal, trapping dirt and repelling water. It is mildly acidic and has antibacterial properties [Burton and Doree, 2003; Guest et
