You might be aware of various ways to remove earwax safely at home. You might have particularly waxy ears at the moment and wonder to yourself, “Is professional ear cleaning worth it?” Clarity Audiology serves the greater Baltimore area in Maryland, helping many people with their hearing needs, including professional ear cleaning. Here are the benefits of professional ear cleaning you can gain.
Why Get Professional Ear Cleaning?
Regular Ear Cleaning Isn’t Enough
Earwax buildup is normal, especially if you have drier earwax or narrow ear canals. It’s especially impactful if you haven’t cleaned out your ears in a long time. Regular ear cleaning at home generally involves wiping out your ears during or after a shower when the warm water has softened the earwax. However, if your ears have enough impacted earwax, regular cleaning might not be enough, and using a Q-Tip would only push it farther into the ear canal. Professional ear cleaning can be the answer.
You Frequently Experience Earwax Buildup
Is earwax buildup a regular occurrence? If you frequently experience a buildup of hardened earwax, then a routine professional cleaning would be a good investment. An audiologist can remove the blockage safely and quickly; it can help to have a second person do it for you with professional tools.
Protecting Your Hearing Health Is Worth It!
Putting off cleaning your ears is not wise. Impacted earwax will cause conductive hearing loss, which has its own downsides, and can also lead to ear infections. For some people, it can cause tinnitus. Keeping your ear canals free of earwax impaction is a wise way to care for your ability to hear and be free from pain.
Clarity Hearing Uses Ear Irrigation for Quick and Painless Results
