Earwax build-up
What are the symtoms?
Earwax is a natural substance produced by our ear to protect and lubricate the ear canal. Our ears efficiently self-clean, gradually pushing out excess wax. In some cases, excessive earwax can build up leading to various issues such as:
-
Reduced hearing
-
Earache
-
Dry, itchy or painful ears
-
A feeling of fullness in the ear
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, please consult our team to book a consultation. We highly discourage to use cotton earbuds, or any methods you may see online.
