About

My name is Carolynne, I am a nurse and have worked in many different acute and primary care settings throughout my career. I am a qualified ear wax removal specialist. I am fully trained and insured to carry out 3 methods of ear wax removal, microsuction, ear irrigation and manual instrument removal.

 

I am mobile and cover Medway, Maidstone, Gravesham and Swale. If you fall just outside this area and want to use my services then please contact me and I still may be able to help. I will do a discount if more than 1 person in the same household wishes to use my services. Every appointment includes a comprehensive assessment of the ears and we will decide together, taking into account your medical history and preference, which method of ear wax removal will be carried out.

​

Many GP surgeries no longer offer ear wax removal, and if they do, the wait time for an appointment is very long. This has been exacerbated by the COVID 19 outbreak. This is an easy and cost effective way to sort out your ear wax problem from the comfort of your own home!

​

What is ear irrigation/ syringing? 

An electronic ear irrigator is used; it involves a pressurised flow of warm water that removes the build-up of earwax. The irrigator has variable pressure control so that irrigation can be performed at the minimum pressure. A controlled flow of warm water will be squirted into your ear canal to flush out the earwax. Ear irrigation should be a painless procedure.

​

What is Microsuction?

A suction device is used to clean the ear without the use of water. The gentle suction device works in a similar way to a vacuum cleaner and although it can be quite noisy, it is quick and painless.

​

Preparing your ears for ear wax removal:

Wax removal can often be carried out without preparation if you need it done urgently but I do recommend using oil beforehand, there are many different products you can use to soften ear wax removal, but the easiest one to get hold of is olive oil! I would recommend earol as I have found that is the best, but any olive oil based spray or drops will do. 

Apply for 3-5 days before ear wax removal as follows:

•  Tilt your head to one side and gently pull the outer ear back and upwards.

   

   

• Drop two or three drops of olive oil into the ear canal.  Do not warm the oil, room temperature is fine. 

   

   

• Keep your head tilted for a few minutes to allow the oil to soak in. 

   

   

• Repeat on the other side.
