Deafness & Hearing Loss: Ear Syringing

One of the main causes of the ruptured ear drum is the insertion of foreign objects such as cotton buds, most of us use these for cleaning around the ear and occasionally we may suffer slight hearing loss or “stuffy” ears which are due to wax build up.

Sometimes we try and remove the wax ourselves by use of cotton buds but this usually only succeeds in pushing the wax further into the ear and if pushed deep enough the wax can black the ear canal or be pressed up against the ear drum.

It is therefore important to remember not to try and remove any wax build up yourself if you think your slight hearing loss might be due to wax build up then visit your Doctor.

There are many home remedies for the removal of ear wax without the need for inserting cotton buds into your ear these are usually in the form of ear drops, they are designed to soften the wax but some of these products can actually have adverse effects on you and cause irritation of the ear. If the drops irritate and cause swelling in the ear canal this is called Otitis exterrna.
