What is Ear Wax?
Earwax (cerumen) is a natural substance with an essential role in ear health. Here’s what you should know:
- Protective Role:
- Traps dust and debris to prevent ear canal damage.
- Provides natural lubrication to keep the ear canal healthy and comfortable.
- Potential Issues:
- Excess buildup can block sound, causing muffled hearing.
- May lead to discomfort, itching, or a sensation of fullness in the ears.
- Untreated buildup increases the risk of infections or complications like dizziness and tinnitus.
Safe removal ensures your ears stay healthy and comfortable while preventing long-term issues.

We understand that you might have questions about ear wax removal, and we’re here to help answer them. Below are some frequently asked questions we receive at BuzzEars, along with our answers to help put your mind at ease.
Is ear wax removal painful?
This procedure is generally not painful; procedures like microsuction aim to be very gentle and non-invasive, so you can remain comfortable when the procedure is being performed.
How do I know if I need ear wax removal?
If you’re experiencing symptoms like blocked ears, reduced hearing, or discomfort, it might be time to book a check-up.
How often should I have ear wax removal done?
This varies from person to person. Some people may need it every few months, while others only need it occasionally. We can help determine the best schedule for you.
Can I remove ear wax at home?
While home remedies are available, professional removal is safer and more effective, especially for significant buildup. Avoid using cotton buds, which can push wax further into the ear.
What is microsuction, and why is it recommended?
A precise technique called microsuction employs light suction to remove wax. Many patients prefer it since it is quick, efficient, and requires no water.
I am experiencing pain or itchiness in my ear, what should I do?
You should consult your doctor or GP in the first instance
Can ear wax removal help with tinnitus?
Yes, in some circumstances. Eliminating excessive wax can help relieve tinnitus symptoms since wax can occasionally produce ringing by pressing on the eardrum.
What should I do after the procedure?
We’ll provide you with care instructions to help maintain healthy ears, including advice on avoiding cotton buds and managing wax buildup.
