Over the Counter Options
Ear wax is a common problem which can be easily managed at home with simple measures.
Ear Syringing can be fairly traumatic to the lining of the ear canal and can lead to infections and pain.
Therefore we are encouraging patients to use an over the counter remedy such as:
- Self syringing kits like the Otex Combi which breaks up and disperses ear wax, is much gentler and is easy to use.
- Sodium Bicarbonate or Otex Ear Drops, these ear drops are used to soften dry or hardened earwax.
For advice on managing earwax build-up, please follow official NHS guidance
