Blocked ears can be uncomfortable, frustrating and may affect your hearing, balance and day-to-day activities. At Parnell Pharmacy, we provide professional ear wax removal in Bow, East London, helping patients safely and effectively remove excess ear wax and improve hearing.
We provide professional ear wax removal using microsuction, widely regarded as the gold standard method of ear wax removal, and ear irrigation where clinically appropriate. Our healthcare professionals are specially trained and certified in ear wax removal, helping patients find relief from blocked ears, reduced hearing and other symptoms associated with ear wax build-up.
Ear wax plays an important role in protecting the ear canal; however, excessive build-up can lead to symptoms such as hearing difficulties, tinnitus, dizziness, blocked ears and ear discomfort. Our experienced clinicians assess every patient individually and use the most appropriate treatment method to safely remove excess wax and support good ear health.
Microsuction is a safe and effective ear wax removal procedure that uses a specialist suction device to remove excess ear wax under direct visualisation. Widely regarded as the gold standard method of ear wax removal, microsuction is commonly used by trained ear care professionals and can be particularly effective for stubborn or impacted ear wax.
In some cases, ear irrigation may also be appropriate. Following an examination of your ears, our trained clinician will recommend the most suitable treatment method based on your symptoms, ear health and the nature of the ear wax build-up.
