We often get asked how often should you have your ears checked and ear wax removed
The honest answer, is there is no known time scale, and it is just one of those things!
Some people need their ears cleaning more regularly than others.
Earwax is perfectly normal, it protects your ears by collecting dust, dirt or bacteria, and also keeps the ears moisturised.
Believe it or not, most ears naturally clean themselves, and we won’t remove if minimal wax is present as this is considered healthy.
If you are experiencing any of the issues below then you may benefit from an ear check
• Blocked or reduced hearing
• Ear discomfort, itching or pressure
• Tinnitus (ringing in the ears)
• Dizziness
• Hearing aids are whistling
Most importantly always check who is providing your care. With over 40yrs combined experience, we are highly experienced Audiologists. We are registered with the necessary bodies the HCPC, AHCS, are fully DBS checked and insured. We don’t just clean ears, if an anomaly is detected we can assist with an onward referral.
