What is Ear Syringing?
Ear syringing, also known as ear irrigation, is a common procedure used to remove excess earwax and debris from the ear canal. This method involves using a gentle stream of warm water to flush out the earwax, which softens and dislodges the wax, allowing it to be washed out of the ear.
At Oracle Clinics, our trained professionals perform ear syringing using safe and effective techniques to ensure a comfortable and thorough cleaning experience.
Benefits of Ear Syringing
Effective Earwax Removal: Clears built-up earwax that can cause discomfort, hearing loss, and infections.
Improved Hearing: Removing earwax blockages can enhance hearing clarity.
Quick Procedure: The process is usually quick, taking about 15–30 minutes.
Non-Invasive: A gentle and non-invasive method for cleaning the ears.
Immediate Relief: Provides immediate relief from symptoms associated with earwax build-up, such as earache and pressure.
Reduces Risk of Infection: Keeping the ears clean reduces the likelihood of ear infections.
Cost-Effective: An affordable option for ear cleaning compared to more advanced procedures.
Suitable for Most People: Safe for a wide range of patients, including those with certain ear conditions, when performed by a professional.
PREPARATION FOR EAR SYRINGING
Consultation: Schedule a consultation with our specialists to discuss your symptoms, medical history, and determine if ear syringing is suitable for you.
Pre-Treatment Instructions: Follow any specific instructions provided by our team, such as using ear drops to soften the wax a few days before the procedure.
Inform About Health Conditions: Inform your specialist of any existing ear conditions, such as infections, perforated eardrums, or surgeries.
Medication Review: Provide a list of any medications you are currently taking, as some may affect the procedure.
Aftercare and Recovery
Post-Treatment Care: You may experience slight dizziness or a feeling of fullness in the ear immediately after the procedure, which typically subsides quickly.
Keep Ears Dry: Avoid getting water in your ears for the first 24 hours post-treatment to reduce the risk of infection.
Gentle Ear Care: Refrain from inserting anything into your ears, including cotton swabs or earplugs, to prevent irritation or injury.
Monitor Symptoms: Contact Oracle Clinics if you experience persistent pain, discharge, or any unusual symptoms after the procedure.
